Land use changes and mounting water demands reduce freshwater inflows into estuaries, impairing estuarine ecosystems and accelerating coastal seawater intrusion. However, determining minimum river inflows for management guidelines is hampered by a lack o...

The wet/dry point treatment method of FVCOM was applied to simulate the tide-induced flooding/drying process in the estuarine?tidal-creek?saltmarsh complex of the Okatee/Colleton River Estuary, South Carolina. The simulation results were compared with ob...

Efficiency in storm surge modeling is crucial for forecasting coastal hazards in real-time. While computation cost may not be the main concern for organizations with ample resources, the robustness of forecasts generated by most parties are restricted by...

Coastal highways along narrow barrier islands are vulnerable to flooding due to ocean and bay-side events, which create hazardous travel conditions and may restrict access to surrounding communities. This study investigates the vulnerability of a segment...

Bottom friction is an important process in coastal and estuarine environments because it can reduce wave heights and moderate tidal currents. When modeling large systems with spatially varying hydraulic properties, bottom friction values are commonly der...

Under the STORMTOOLS initiative, maps of the impact of sea level rise (SLR) (0 to 12 ft), nuisance flooding (1?10 yr), 25, 50, and 100 yr storms, and hindcasts of the four top ranked tropical storms have been developed for the coastal waters of Rhode Isl...

The balance between the need of improving horizontal resolution in simulating local small-scale ocean processes and computational costs makes it desirable to refine model mesh locally. A three-dimensional, two-way nesting unstructured quadrilateral grid,...

The mechanisms that control estuarine sediment transport are complicated due to the interaction between riverine flows, tidal currents, waves, and wave-driven currents. In the past decade, severe seabed erosion and shoreline retreat along the sandy coast...

Tidal datums are key components in NOAA?s Vertical Datum transformation project (VDatum), which enables effective vertical transformation of the water level between tidal, orthometric, and ellipsoid -based three-dimensional reference systems. An initial ...
