When engineers at the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey assessed the possible effects of climate change on the region’s most critical transportation infrastructure, they made some surprising discoveries. In some cases, recent infrastructure upgrades that had been undertaken for other reasons conferred the unexpected benefit of increasing the infrastructure’s resilience; in other cases, additional actions will be required.
