RA Project Summaries

Resilient Analytics, Inc analyzed climate impacts on Alaskan infrastructure and the potential costs associated with maintaining and potentially adapting the infrastructure to

projected climate changes. 

In this case study example, multiple risk factors for the expansion of a hospitality location are evaluated. The evaluation

includes understanding the potential damages from climate change, and the cost of adaptation.

In the case study illustrated here, multiple risk factors for an organization’s primary and supplier locations are evaluated. With over 250 locations spread geographically across the United States, the organization is

vulnerable to multiple climate change impacts.

The rail system in the United States is comprised of over 140,000 miles of

passenger and freight Class 1 rails. Due to recent climate shifts, the rail network is becoming increasingly vulnerable to rising thermal conditions and precipitation shifts.

Resilient Analytics, Inc conducted a study in conjunction with major utilities to

determine the potential impact to field workers. If no adaptation procedures are put in place, it is projected that workplace accidents could increase up to 8% by 2030 and up to 17% in some locations by 2070.

Resilient Analytics, Inc studied the potential impact of. climate change on corn production and found that the United States sees increases in growing degree days, but the advantage of the growing season will be offset by the reduction in available water.
