Our scientists routinely perform statistical analyses and reporting for efforts <br />involving the detection of shifts in community composition at the species level in response to upstream <br />or land-based activities. In addition to providing qualified and experienced staff, Cummins Cederberg can <br />provide the necessary shallow water vessel, DGPS, data sondes for the collection of water quality data, <br />sediment cores, video and still cameras, and SCUBA diving equipment necessary. <br /> <br />Coastal Engineering & Resiliency <br />The Cummins Cederberg team includes Florida Registered Professional Engineers with extensive <br />coastal engineering experience. Our project engineers are responsible for the investigation, planning, <br />design, and construction management of coastal projects including beach nourishment, shoreline <br />stabilization, coastal structures, inlet management, and coastal restoration. We have experience with <br />advanced numerical modeling tools, such as the Danish-based MIKE model, the US-based <br />SMS/ADCIRC model, and the Dutch-based Delft/Swan model. One of our founders, Jannek Cederberg, <br />even spent time working at the Danish Hydraulic Institute while living in Denmark before he relocated to <br />South Florida. Our experience includes the analysis of wave propagation both offshore and shallow <br />coastal areas, FEMA risk hazard map modeling, hydrodynamic flow in inlets and estuaries, and sediment <br />transport associated with wave and current dynamics, as well as the interactions of beaches with natural <br />and man-made coastal structures such as jetties, groins, breakwaters, rock headlands, and offshore <br />reefs. Our coastal engineers have designed projects throughout the Miami-Dade County coastline, <br />including Miami Beach, with experience ranging from beach design, hurricane modeling, and sea level <br />rise mitigation plans. <br /> <br /> <br />Matheson Hammock Park Sea Level Rise and Flood Mitigation Plan is a study which was prepared <br />for Miami-Dade County to analyze the impacts of sea level rise on the park’s infrastructure and <br />operations, as well as flood mitigation concepts for planning and budgeting. The study was unique as it <br />combines sea level rise projections, practical concepts, and on-the-ground implementation experience <br />with maintenance and replacement requirements. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
