Abstract: Analysis of the change in the spectrum of wind waves over a 5-km reach just prior to the surf zone during a major extratropical storm indicates that significant shifts in the spectral distribution of wave energy occur. For ...

Abstract: Wave observations made during an October 1990 storm on the North Carolina coast are used to investigate the evolution of wind waves as they propagate from about 48 m to 8.5 m of water. The observations include height, ...

Abstract: The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) recently completed a detailed study to address the coastal storm and flood risk to vulnerable population, property, ecosystems, and infrastructure affected by Hurricane Sandy. One ...

Abstract: Model simulations using a depth-averaged ocean circulation model (ADCIRC) two-way coupled with a wave model (STWAVE) through the Coastal Storm Modeling System Coupling Framework (CSTORM-MS) are compared with observations ...
