Coastal Resiliency provides studentsan exposure to best practices in civil engineering, climate science, community planning andpolicy. At CGA, no one faculty member has expertise in these collective arenas however, as ateam, the combined knowledge of three faculty members, and several guest lecturers, has beenleveraged to annually teach a course that educates future Coast Guard Officers and civilengineers about the challenges ahead for coastal communities.

The resulting CST matrixshowed values of apparent resistivity consistently in agreement with the modeled earth stratum.Over the extent of a buried Styrofoam feature, the device generated measurements up to 70%higher and identified clear lateral disruptions in subsurface conditions. Overall, the proposed ERmeter proved to be a tool well suited for tabletop experiments and capable of characterizingcomplex test beds. Its open-science design addresses the issues of the “black box” surroundingproprietary equipment and makes it accessible to the community at large for a fraction of the costof commercial units. With practical applications for hands-on teaching and interactive learning,this work makes geotechnical laboratory education more

Emphasis is placed onmultimeters and outlet testers to check if components are energized or if wiring is incorrect.These basic tools are generally available at any major home improvement retailer or hardwarestore.
