In this pset, you will code a Monte Carlo simulation of several decades of future flood damage due to sea level rise and compare alternative strategies involving some combination of ‘prepare’, ‘repair’, and ‘retreat’ strategies. While the problem statement and risk management strategies are simplified, they provide the ground framework for addressing some of the very real issues associated with determining who should bear the cost of property damage along our coastlines and what regulation of coastal land use is legal, appropriate, and equitable. If any of this truly speaks to you or if you're just curious to learn more, please check out the linked academic papers and newspaper articles referencing related ‘real world’ settings at the end of the pset.
