BREE Graduate Research Assistant Jesse Gourevitch and Ecological Systems Team Member Beverley Wemple, PhD are among the authors on a new paper, "Improving flood hazard datasets using a low-complexity, probabilistic floodplain mapping approach." The article, whose authors also include Rebecca Diehl, PhD of the UVM Department of Geography and Stephanie Drago of the UVM Rubenstein School of Environment and Natural Resources, represents the first effort in Vermont to map the distribution of natural capital that provides important flood mitigation and water quality benefits. In doing so, it captures the range of variability in flooding in the Lake Champlain Basin.
