LSU Department of Environmental Sciences Professor Nina Lam and colleagues have published a new study that shows while Americans in coastal communities have become more aware of the risk of building in a flood zone, inland communities lag behind as construction continues in inland flood zones. This research is funded by the US National Science Foundation.
