Calibrating Coastal Resilience presents a conceptual reimagining of place in the era of climate change. Using case studies from South Florida, the book illustrates the unique climate risks for this region with a focus on the preservation of historic neighborhoods and buildings and reinforcement of built structures.

Sonia Cháo teaches, writes, and specializes in sustainable architecture and urbanism, resilient design, and historic preservation in the subtropics. She is the Associate Dean of Research at the University of Miami School of Architecture and the director of the Coastal Resilience (CoRe) Lab. She previously served as one of the founding co-directors of the interdisciplinary Master of Professional Science in Urban Sustainability and Resilience program and was the prior director of the Center for Community & Urban Design in Miami between 2006 and 2021. She has led various interdisciplinary, and at times interinstitutional, research initiatives, which have led to the development of the SSBV model, the terroir framework, and numerous publications, exhibitions, symposia, and partnerships with communities to promote sustainable and climate-resilient design practices. Her work has received support from the National Endowment for the Arts, National Science Foundation, W.K. Kellogg Foundation, the Barr Foundation, and other funders.
