This team develops flooding event forecasts that enable coastal managers, emergency management personnel, property owners, and the general public to make more informed decisions about how to prepare for and respond to coastal erosion and flooding impacts. The hydrodynamic model used here was designed to account for all the wave-created phenomena that contribute to flooding at the shore, including swash, bore-on-bore capture, coastal seiches, set-up, and more, as sea level rises.
