Coastal Processes and Adapting to Coastal Change on Michigan’s Great Lakes
May 22 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm
Free
Michigan is defined by its Great Lakes coast. The coastlines of the Great Lakes are a dynamic environment affected by waves, wind, ice, and water level changes. The changing shoreline is key to the health of our Great Lakes, yet they create hazards for communities and individuals that live along them.
Zach Chamberlin, Great Lakes Shorelands Specialist, and Emily Kirkpatrick, Coastal Hazards Coordinator from EGLE’s Water Resource Division will give an overview of coastal processes and coastal change on the Great Lakes. They will cover how natural shorelines are resilient, how communities and individuals can adapt to coastal change, and how to plan for the next high-water event. This webinar is intended for anyone with an interest in Great Lakes coasts, including coastal community leaders, planners, contractors, and individuals living along the Great Lakes.
