Megalopolitan Coastal Transformation Hub
SERC serves as the external evaluator for the MACH project. The "wicked problem" that climate change poses to coastal communities requires many great minds working alongside local residents, officials, and professionals to better understand the options available to decrease their risk. To assist with these types of complex decisions, Rutgers University and 12 other institutions created the Megalopolitan Coastal Transformation Hub, or MACH (pronounced 'mock'). MACH is a part of a network of research hubs, located around the country, funded through the National Science Foundation's Coastlines and People (CoPe) program. MACH's mission is to support decision making to manage climate-change-related risks through research focused at the intersection of natural and human systems. These collaborations are rooted in core principles regarding equitable community participation in and co-production of climate solutions. (Adapted from coastalhub.org)
