Project Description
Katherine Anarde is an assistant professor in the Department of Civil, Construction, and Environmental Engineering at North Carolina State University. She received her B.A. in geology from the University of Colorado at Boulder. She then worked as an environmental consultant at ENVIRON International Corp. before heading to Rice University for a Ph.D. in civil and environmental engineering. Anarde is a coastal engineer and geomorphologist who combines observational and numerical approaches to investigate coastal hazards. Her current research is largely interdisciplinary and focuses on climate impacts to coastal communities. This body of work includes projects investigating community- and household-level impacts from flooding due to sea level rise, as well as modeling of how humans alter natural barrier evolution over decadal time scales. Her past research focused on storm impacts to sandy coastlines, with projects measuring ocean waves during hurricanes and modeling of future infrastructure vulnerability. Prior to joining NC State, she was a postdoctoral researcher in the Coastal Environmental Change Lab at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and project manager for the Collaboratory for Coastal Adaptation over Space and Time (C-CoAST).
