Semi-Finalist Evaluation
Judges'' comments
The Climate CoLab adaptation contest team appreciates the time that you took to submit this proposal. This is an interesting initial concept, but there are a lot of questions that are currently unanswered and a lot of work left to do on this proposal. A good starting point would be to identify key partners and sources of funding that would allow you to move forward. The judges recommend considering the following questions: Where would these go? Who would decide where they go? What are they designed to do? Are the costs commensurate with the benefits? What would the impacts to the sides of the flexible barriers be? How would they be activated? Who would decide this? What impact would they have on normal coastal activities? What property rights would have to be acquired to latch the barriers to the ocean floor? What concrete support is there that these will reduce impacts from increasing coastal storms or storm intensity? While your proposal is not advancing to the semi-finals this year, the contest team wishes you the best of luck in your endeavors and would love to see a proposal from you next year incorporating this feedback.
