🚨 New paper alert 🚨 Learn about our research published in @CommsEarth to leverage post-disaster data to rapidly estimate recovery potential, looking at the 2015 Nepal earthquake #disasterresilience #earthquake #recovery
Potential for recovery can be estimated from surveys and widely available data, and is more relevant than building damage for identifying vulnerable communities.

Super excited about the launch of this new program in our department. If you're interested in applied disaster analysis skills, consider applying!
U-M CEE is excited to announce our new specialization program: Hazards, Risk, and Resilience. The specialization will equip students with critical skills that will prepare them to navigate and reduce societal risks associated with natural hazards. bit.ly/3Xu3VsJ

U-M CEE Prof. Sabine Loos and students traveled to Nepal to interview residents and explore the landscape to identify locations of previous floods. They’re uncovering how floods affect communities and are shaping future resilience strategies. bit.ly/3T5fnZu

Recently, @UMich CSS Data Scientist, Brad Bottoms, traveled to Nepal's Chitwan Valley to study the effects of flooding on local communities. In partnership with @umisr & @UMengineering AIDD Labs, the study illustrates a rapidly changing environment. myumi.ch/Q6mQ8

If you aren't famliar with Did You Feel It? maps, this graphic explains what they show: the relative severity of shaking across a region, assessed with an intensity scale.
Studies have shown that DYFI intensities correlate well with shaking levels recorded by seismometers.

Wondering where the inspiration came from? Read our “Behind the paper” blog on the use of big data after disasters: go.nature.com/3kj3ssY
Thanks to @Asia_Foundation for providing data, @WorldBank TFSCB and @Data4SDGs for project support, and collaborators #MhairiOHara @rsoden_ #SabinNinglekhu. Finally, thanks to the households, community leaders, and residents of Nepal who were generous with their time and trust.
