Description: This file was created for The Nature Conservancy's Sea Level Rise Project for the northern Gulf of Mexico with funding from the Coastal Bend Bays and Estuary Program (CBBEP). This dataset shows communities at risk of storm surge inundation in 2100 for each census block group in Corpus Christi Bay, Texas under a simulated category 1 hurricane event and a 1 meter of sea level rise by 2100 scenario based on predicted landcover maps of Corpus Christi Bay, Texas using the Advanced Circulation model (ADCIRC). The map represents the risk communities face due to storm surge inundation and their social vulnerability. Risk is defined as the outcome of the interaction between the hazard impact, the level of exposure of the elements at risk to the hazard, and the vulnerability of the elements at risk (Shepard et al. 2011). The input datasets include the SoVI dataset and the community storm surge exposure analysis that estimates the percentage of each block group exposed to storm surge inudation. High risk communities in this analysis are those that are classified as having higher social vulnerability and higher exposure to storm surge. Low risk communities are those that have lower social vulnerability and lower exposure to storm surge. Finally, the Community Risk index was calculated by classifying the exposure index with the SoVI into a 1-5 (low to high) ranking system where blocks groups that experienced high exposure and high social vulnerability (e.g. 5), were considered highest risk, while block groups with medium exposure and medium social vulnerability were considered medium risk (e.g. 3), and so forth. <a href='xml/gulfmex_TX_CC_StormSurgeRisk_2100_1m_SLR.xml' target='_blank'><b>Metadata</b><a></br>
