Weather Ready Research Reports
The Weather Ready Research Award program supports social science and interdisciplinary innovation in disaster research, prioritizes novel areas of study that require the collection of ephemeral data, and provides training and mentoring for conducting ethical and rigorous hazards and disaster research. Weather Ready Research reports capture perishable data on recent events. All analysis is preliminary.
