The world faces an uncertain future. Two-thirds of major global companies have assets at serious physical risk under the high impact climate change scenario in 2050. Some of the greatest risks come from water stress and wildfire. Lynker Intel can help you to pinpoint the exposure of company, agency or publicly owned facilities, supply chains and capital assets to physical risks including flooding, wildfire, sea-level rise, heat wave, drought, hurricanes, and earthquake. Lynker Intel develops actionable intelligence that considers each customer’s unique set of climate questions and objectives based on its particular situation, geographical footprint, physical assets, and business priorities. In doing so we provide bespoke yet affordable professional-service solutions for each customer.
Lynker Intel is a global provider of risk and safety solutions related to natural hazards, with a broad range of services across. Our scientists, engineers, and economists have decades of experience performing risk and damage assessments for the insurance market and planning communities at town, city, and national scales.
Lynker Intel has expert hydrologists with strong expertise in field work, data analysis, research, modeling, forecasting, and developing actionable data products across all water environments. We work with a holistic approach to solve water-related issues by considering the combined effect of weather, climate, water and human management.
Infrastructure and its networks will be affected by the physical impacts of climate variability and change but will also play an essential role in building resilience to those impacts. Lynker Intel can help you prioritize, plan, and design new or retrofit old infrastructure in a more thoughtful environmentally aligned (green) manner that can account for the climate and other changes that may occur over its lifetime.
Business and government leaders face unprecedented risk from natural hazards, climate change, population growth, geopolitical shifts, and security threats. Lynker Intel can help you by building customized spatial intelligence to visualize risk on “smart” maps, find patterns and trends in big data, and communicate seamlessly during risk mitigation and response.
Lynker Intel has deep experience working with multi-disciplinary and stakeholder teams to develop ecological restoration solutions for fluvial, coastal, and wetland environments. We work with clients to restore damaged habitats that provide important ecological functions and contribute to improved ecosystem health benefiting humans and wildlife alike.
With decades of deep experience in natural hazards analyses and risk assessment, Lynker Intel partners with private and public organizations to operationalize climate change impact analytics, projections of population growth and subsequent increases in vulnerable assets, as well as other changes influencing hazard and risk exposure, in order to make better business and adaptation decisions for the future impacts of hazards. Decisions that must be made now.
Hidden from view, groundwater provides a critical water supply resource to billions of people across the globe, while simultaneously providing a foundation to healthy ecosystems. Lynker Intel geohydrology professionals have the knowledge and experience to help clients manage their groundwater resource challenges.
Considering progressively more stringent regulations, high profile tailings dam disasters, declining ore grades and mine closure activities, sound water management strategies and models are paramount for successful and safe mining. Lynker Intel excels at assessing all phases and functions of mine water resources including the development of water-balance and groundwater flow-and-transport models to support the efficient management of water at a viable price. We understand that the availability, quality, and cost of water are key to investment decisions, and cost-effective water management is critical to profitability.
Land, soil and groundwater impacted by accidental spills and releases of chemicals and wastes can present unacceptable risks to human health and the environment. Mitigation of exposure to impacts begins with a sound understanding of the sciences that define their 5 fate and transport. Lynker Intel approaches site assessments, feasibility studies, and remediation of impacted soil and groundwater considering the science and using the wide variety of means and methods in our toolbox.
Our communities in the west are vulnerable to wildfire during drought conditions, especially as the impacts of climate change increase. We work to provide adaptation solutions to wildfire hazards.
The potential impacts of drought on communities is clearly visible in the dropping reservoir level at Lake Meade and Lake Powell in the Colorado River basin. We work with municipalities to identify and forecast the magnitude and severity of droughts from a water system perspective.

Irrigation for agriculture is supplied by surface water and groundwater sources, both of which are impacted by drought through different mechanisms. Drought may motivate the leasing of water, sale of cattle, or decision on whether to plant for the season. We provide geospatial solutions to analyze drought impacts while considering future climate change.
related capabilities
Flood hazards present profound risks to both life and property. We combine localized impact data along with cutting-edge forecast models to help communities and business plan for, respond to, and adapt to flood hazards.
related capabilities
Rising sea levels and accelerated coastal erosion due to climate change present major risks to urban coastal areas and infrastructure. We can provide modeling solutions to guide mitigation planning efforts to proactively protect life and property.
related capabilities
Climate change, overfishing, and industrial development are leaving a lasting impact on our world’s fisheries. Sustainable fisheries are a necessity for the next generation populating our coastal communities. Lynker Intel can help guide decision makers in protecting and encouraging growth of this valuable natural resource.
related capabilities
Earthquakes can abruptly and catastrophically damage unprepared urban areas. Lynker Intel can provide customized risk assessment and hazard mapping to help local leaders prepare for the unexpected.
related capabilities
Increased temperatures present our urban population centers with unique challenges. Infrastructure decisions made by previous generations need to be reevaluated and updated to mitigate the effects of climate change. Lynker Intel can help identify problem areas such as heat islands to improve public health and quality of life.
