Due to the devastating effects of recent hurricanes in the Gulf of Mexico (eg, Katrina, Rita, Ike
and Gustav), the development of a high-resolution, real-time, total water level prototype …

The inland propagation of storm surge caused by tropical cyclones depends on large and
small waterways to connect the open ocean to inland bays, estuaries, and floodplains …

Multiple river-dominated estuaries line the northern Gulf coast and introduce substantial
density variations. Their plumes have been shown to be highly sensitive to wind and tide …

In this contribution, the implementation, validation and sensitivity analysis of an operational
forecasting system (three-dimensional hydrostatic model) in the Ría de Vigo is presented. A …

Following the scientific, technical, and field trial initiatives ongoing since the Maritime Rapid
Environmental Assessment (MREA) conferences in 2003, 2004, and 2007, the MREA10 …

With a growing population (over 40%) living in coastal counties within the US, there is an
increasing risk that coastal communities will be significantly impacted by riverine/coastal …

The impact of resolution on wind predictions within regions of complex coastal geometry is
evaluated using a quadruple nest of COAMPS®(27 km to 1 km) to find an optimal …

In this work, we develop a high-resolution oceanographic database, suitable for marine
renewable energy (MRE) applications. We apply downscaling techniques, using ROMS …

The aim of this study is to construct a modeling system that will assist flood risk management
strategies in a coastal plain braided river system. The model configuration consists of a …

In this paper, we discuss the validation of water level and current predictions from three
coastal hydrodynamic models and document the resource and operational requirements for …
