ABSTRACT

Uncertainty about the impacts of sea level rise make the ability to forecast future spatial conditions a necessary planning/design tool. A design process was developed to assess flood vulnerability using projections for the 100-year floodplain with sea level rise by 2100. Projections were used as a guide to spatially execute a resilient master plan for League City, TX, USA, a suburb city to Houston. Future impacts of the plan are projected using landscape performance measures.
