BMI students survey storm damage

 

Students from the Belfast Marine Institute who recently conducted a survey of storm 

damage along the Belfast shoreline. 



Working in conjunction with Kelsey Davis and the ITEST Coastal Tracers group, class members took photos of existing damage and interviewed people on the waterfront, like passersby and local businesses, including the Belfast harbormaster.

After debriefing on what they saw, students will discuss ways to monitor what the community does next, developing possible mitigation scenarios and their costs and implications.
