Overall Objective<br />
rosensel site<br />
The overall objective <strong>of</strong> this thesis is to explore the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Miami</strong> Rosenstiel <strong>School</strong><br />
<strong>of</strong> Marine and Atmospheric Sciences as a test site for compact sustainable coastal development.<br />
The goal is to develop architectural and open space improvements which would<br />
help create a vibrant academic cluster in which to house a greater range <strong>of</strong> teaching,<br />
research, living, and recreational activities than are served by the existing campus. This<br />
expansion <strong>of</strong> architecture and infrastructure would be carried out in a way which reduces<br />
the site’s vulnerability to storm events and climate change while enhancing ecological<br />
function and the site’s interaction with adjacent natural areas.<br />
