The inaugural episode of Engineering where the Tide Flows: The Texas COPRI Podcast takes a dive into who COPRI is and some of the people that are creating and executing the COPRI vision. COPRI, which stands for Coasts, Oceans, Ports, and Rivers Institute, is an institution within the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) focused on enhancing the core disciplines stated in the name. As the climate changes and our populated coastlines face new challenges COPRI seeks to enhance our skillsets and knowledge to better attack these  focus. Tom Chase, Director, and Tori Tomiczek, President, join us to elaborate on their careers and what brought them to COPRI, where they see COPRI now, and where COPRI is going.
