Flood frequency is increasing in Bucksport, SC, due to changes in the hydrological systems, both precipitation patterns and increased development upstream. Increased flood frequency is leading to property damage and loss of population. Many residents cannot receive disaster funding, because they live on heirs property, lacking the required property deeds. This project aims to understand the social and ecological factors impacting flooding in Bucksport, SC, and to work with community partners to improve flood resilience.
