Abstract

What is the role of climate in infrastructure design? How can engineers design for a changing climate? How can climate scientists better inform the design process? These were the questions posed at the first Infrastructure and Climate Network (ICNet) Steering Committee Workshop, which was sponsored by a U.S. National Science Foundation research grant (CBET‐1231326) from the Research Coordination Networks‐Science, Engineering and Education for Sustainability (RCN‐SEES) program.
