EMERGE Research Ecosystem
Advancing earth surface systems, floodplain dynamics, resilience, and human–environment futures using geospatial science.
Mission
EMERGE studies the interactions among earth surface systems, floodplains, landscapes, and urban environments using GIS, remote sensing, spatial modeling, and environmental data science.
Research Themes
Earth Surface Systems
Understanding dynamic interactions among land, water, vegetation, and human-shaped environments.
Floodplain and Landscape Dynamics
Studying river–floodplain connectivity, landscape change, and environmental processes across scales.
Resilience and Environmental Change
Advancing research on flood risk, adaptation, ecosystem services, and resilient human–environment futures.
Geospatial Modeling and Generative Engagement
Using GIS, remote sensing, spatial modeling, data science, and engaged research to support decision-making.
