From award-winning modeling work to newly released hyper-resolution data, Claggett explains how decades of research are helping counties better understand impervious surfaces, tree canopy changes, and stormwater dynamics. Learn how these insights can guide smarter local development, improve stormwater planning, and support sustainability goals statewide.
