\u201cSea level rise as the result of \u201cclimate change is one of the most complex issues (,) \u2026 involves\u00a0many dimensions \u2013 science, economics, society, politics and moral and ethical questions\u201d\u00a0(NASA, 2020).\u00a0 Uncoordinated actions can negatively affect the trajectory of communities along\u00a0the Ventura County coastline, alter the fiscal sustainability of the state of California, complicate\u00a0the US defense strategy, and disturb the rhythm of the global economy. [From the opening\u00a0remarks of the Capstone narrative.]<\/p>\n

This team was assigned to a project brought to the department by the Ventura County Planning\u00a0Division as part of their Ventura County Resilient Coastal Adaptation Project that is an ongoing\u00a0effort to prepare the county for issues pertaining to sea level rise predicted to impact the\u00a0county over the next century. Although some of the predictions may not occur until the end of\u00a0the century, others may take place by or before the year 2030. Therefore, the county is actively\u00a0working on planning that would mitigate the impact of rising waters on coastal communities throughout the county.<\/p>\n

As part of the process, the county distributed a survey in December 2020 with the intent to\u00a0gather information about community preferences pertaining to sea level rise planning activities\u00a0and adaptation strategies designed to mitigate the impact of sea level rise. The 10-question\u00a0survey asked respondents to detail their beach usage, as well as their preferences and opinions\u00a0of various planning strategies currently under consideration.<\/p>\n

The Capstone team was asked to prepare an analysis of the date, which included both\u00a0qualitative and quantitative responses and to summarize the data in both a narrative and a\u00a0graphic format for ease of sharing the analysis.<\/p>\n

The objectives of the project were as follows:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Organize the date, combining digital and paper responses and translating the Spanish\u00a0versions to English. To ensure that all the data was entered into a single database for\u00a0processing.<\/li>\n
  2. Use Excel to analyze the quantitative responses and prepare visual charts and graphs to\u00a0illustrate the responses to these questions utilizing descriptive statistics.<\/li>\n
  3. Examine all qualitative responses to open-ended questions and code responses into\u00a0thematic elements to present the findings in a meaningful synthesis of the responses.<\/li>\n
  4. Provide conclusions and recommendations based on the analyzed data.<\/li>\n
  5. Prepare a narrative report of the findings suitable for use by Ventura County Planning.<\/li>\n
  6. Design a PowerPoint presentation slide deck to share with the Ventura County Planning\u00a0Division at a department meeting. The same presentation can be modified to share with\u00a0the MPPA and Cal Lutheran communities.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The Capstone team was able to complete all the goals set out for them and looks forward to\u00a0sharing the results in the near future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
