Title A name given to the resource Environmental Vulnerability in the City of Hudson and Town of Greenport Subject The topic of the resource environmental vulnerability Description An account of the resource Each map shows the spatial relationship between an environmental vulnerability factor and the location of communities that are disadvantaged and not disadvantaged. Disadvantaged communities in the City of Hudson and Town of Greenport tend to have less tree canopy cover and more impervious surface cover than non-disadvantaged communities. This correlates to the concentration of heat islands in disadvantaged communities. Flooding hazards are not a risk to Hudson and Greenport.

The point of comparison is between those communities defined by NYSERDA to be disadvantaged, and those not. The graphs accompany the maps, displaying a sharp contrast between environmental vulnerability in both types of communities, and creating a link between the factors that NYSERDA considers for defining disadvantaged communities - factors of race, class, and otherwise - and exposure to environmental vulnerability.

As climate change renders parts of its current habitat unsuitable, the species will expand to new areas as they become more befitting. Besides their beautiful changing leaves in the fall, Sugar Maples produce high yields of sap, and are critical for maple syrup production. Where will these beautiful trees, and their delicious industry, find themselves by 2100?

Title A name given to the resource The Silent Victims: A Flooding Risk Analysis of Unmovable Cultural Relics in Shan-Xi, China Subject The topic of the resource flooding risk Description An account of the resource Shan-Xi is a plateau province in North China known for its rich historical legacies. As one of the birthplaces of Chinese civilization, Shan-Xi's history of human activities can be traced all the way back to the Paleolithic age. However, this abundance of historical sites also poses challenges for the preservation: many unmovable relics sites are in remote rural areas, lacking appropriate protections and prompt restorations. This problem has become particularly concerning with the increasing occurrences of extreme weather events such as flooding and storms.

Title A name given to the resource Disparity of Surface Cover, Heat Vulnerability and Race in Communities of Lower Westchester Subject The topic of the resource environmental justice Description An account of the resource Based on the above maps, in Lower Westchester, there is a positive correlation between impervious surface cover and heat vulnerability and a negative correlation between tree canopy cover and heat vulnerability. Due to albedo and other geophysical phenomena, impervious surfaces, unlike tree cover and soil surfaces, reflect and do not absorb heat. Therefore, the areas are hotter and more dangerous to live in.

Subject The topic of the resource climate resilience Description An account of the resource Along with the ever growing presence of global warming, many coastal areas are at high risk of flooding. This is due to increased inclement weather, both in intensity and frequency, as well as sea level rise. The digitized polygons from the historical map were also included here to show the areas most at risk for flood as it correlates to the land that has been built over landfill. The levels of risk for flood are categorized in the legend; V zones being the most at risk followed by AE, A and X zones. These zoning labels have been developed by FEMA and to understand how exactly they are defined please see the table above (derived from FEMA website).
