Investigators continue to look into what was the official cause of the collapse of the Champlain Towers South nearly a year ago.
A local researcher studying sea level rise told NBC 6 Investigators that saltwater intrusion may have played a role in damaging the foundations of the building.
Most building foundations are made with steel-reinforced concrete. The concrete can absorb salt water, leading to corrosion of the steel inside.
“When the tragic collapse happened a year ago, it caught my eye,” said Randall Parkinson, a research professor at Florida International University.
In November 2021, Parkinson published the first peer-reviewed study looking into the potential impact of sea level saltwater intrusion on residential buildings in South Florida.
He used data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and found the groundwater rose above the Champlain Towers basement floor an average of 244 times a year from 1994 to 2006, then 636 times a year from 2007 to 2020.
"You see it all the time, balconies that need repair,” Parkinson said. “But I think in these cases you can see it. You can stand on your balcony and say, 'I need someone to take a look at this.' I think at issue here, what really changed the way we think about this now is that these are out of sight, out of mind.”
In December, a Miami-Dade County grand jury investigating the collapse wrote that saltwater intrusion had probably damaged the foundation of Champlain Towers South.
Researchers at Florida Atlantic University found similar results in another study.
“These were issues that were just ignored,” Parkinson said. "Unfortunately Surfside was a disaster waiting to happen.”
These environmental issues may be one of several factors which could have contributed to the collapse. NBC 6 Investigators revealed the condo association delayed millions of dollars in repairs over pushback about a hefty assessment.
Condo owners were also concerned over construction across the street at 87 Park, which neighbors claimed shook parts of their building.
Both were part of the more than $1 billion settlement reached after the collapse. All companies involved deny responsibility.
Investigators have not yet determined the official cause of the collapse — that could take years. However, Parkinson said this should be a warning to all the buildings on the barrier islands. Sea level rise will pose a nuisance and a threat in South Florida from here on out.

KYIV: Though Russia can claim a prize with its capture of Ukraine's eastern Luhansk region , it is far from Moscow's ambitious early war aims and does not deal Kyiv a decisive military blow.
The Russian assault will now switch its focus to the rest of the Donbas industrial heartland, but Kyiv will find it easier to defend fortified positions in Donetsk region and the battles that will shape the war's course still lie ahead, military analysts said.
"I think it's a tactical victory for Russia but at an enormous cost within the context of redefined military goals," said Neil Melvin, a London-based RUSI think tank analyst.
Russian President Vladimir Putin congratulated his troops on Monday for "liberating" Luhansk region, promising medals for heroism and saying that soldiers should get some rest. Three Russian cosmonauts sent a celebratory message from space .
It is a milestone for a war machine that abandoned an assault on Kyiv in the conflict's early weeks to focus on capturing the Donbas, made up of Luhansk and Donetsk - swathes of which Kyiv still controls.
Russia says it wants to wrest the Donbas from Ukraine on behalf of Moscow-backed separatists in two self-proclaimed people's republics whose independence it recognised on the eve of the war.
The Battle for the Donbas began around mid-April and it has taken since then for Russia to drive Ukraine from just Luhansk, a large chunk of which was already held by Moscow-backed separatist proxies before the Feb 24 invasion.
"This (the capture of Luhansk) is a redefined objective and a very small objective in a way. And Russia has put its full military force into achieving this goal and still it has taken nearly 60 days," Melvin said.
Russia's initial war aims went far beyond the Donbas and capturing Luhansk region, and likely included a change of government or at least altering ex-Soviet Ukraine's westward orientation, said Rob Lee of the US-based Foreign Policy Research Institute. They also included "de-militarising" Ukraine.
"Clearly Russia had more ambitious aims at the beginning of the war," he said.
Russia has switched its battlefield tactics, using long-range shelling to force Ukrainian forces from positions before sending in ground forces, making slow, grinding progress reminiscent of World War II, analyst say.
"This isn't a way to build momentum; they're taking relatively small amount of territory each day and in the context of modern warfare, this is very slow progress. The Russians are burning through their advanced equipment and personnel, so they are paying a price for this," said Melvin.
Ukraine's governor of Luhansk region told Reuters its capture after Ukraine withdrew from Lysychansk city was a "painful" loss, but that it had saved soldiers from being completely surrounded and pounded by artillery.
"In terms of the military, it is bad to leave positions, but there is nothing critical. We need to win the war, not the battle for Lysychansk," Governor Sergiy Gaidai said.
He predicted Donetsk region's city of Sloviansk and town of Bakhmut would be the targets of Russia's next offensive. He urged foreign powers to step up heavy weapons supplies, saying the West had "understood too late" the situation in Ukraine.
The invasion has killed thousands, displaced millions and flattened cities, particularly in Russian-speaking areas in the east and southeast of Ukraine.
Kyiv and the West say Russia is waging an unprovoked war of aggression and accuse Moscow of war crimes. Moscow denies that and calls its actions a special military operation to degrade Ukraine's military, root out dangerous nationalists in power and protect Russian speakers from Ukraine.
Lee said it had been hard for Ukraine to hold positions in Lysychansk and the city of Sievierodonetsk, another frontline stronghold that fell on Jun 25, both of which lay on Ukrainian-held land that jutted into Russian-held territory.
Kyiv was unable to send heavy artillery and air defences to cover its troops there because they would have been exposed, a disadvantage it will not have if a new defensive line takes shape near Sloviansk and nearby Kramatorsk, he said.
"That kind of line should be easier for Ukraine to defend with long range artillery and long range air defence systems, so they can use that to provide cover so they get the Ukrainian troops fighting there because they're not in this deep salient," he said.
He predicted Russia might make more small gains in the east in the meantime.
Russia, which annexed the peninsula of Crimea in 2014, captured swathes of southern Ukraine, claiming control of the strategically important Kherson region that looks out onto the Black Sea and where Ukraine says it plans a counter-offensive.
The key battle of the war is still yet to come and Ukraine likely sees its counter-offensive in Kherson as of greater strategic importance than the fight for the Donbas, said Melvin.
"The Battle in Donbas is not going to be the strategic battle for Ukraine; that battle is likely to take place in the south," he said.
