Climate change is in large parts responsible for this storm, says Professor Kathleen Treseder, from the University of California, Irvine’s Ecology and Evolutionary Biology department.
UCs Irvine, Riverside and San Diego are working to find solutions to manage the impacts from climate change with a regional project to reduce risks in California, led by UCI and Professor of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology Steven Allison.
Kathleen Treseder thinks a lot about potential solutions for problems like erosion. She studies and teaches climate change at the University of California, Irvine. She says many of the expensive homes along Orange County’s coastline might withstand waves lapping at their porches, but they could be taken out by a storm surge.
