Abstract: he majority of structural damage and loss of life during a hurricane is due to storm surge, thus it is important for communities in hurricane-prone regions to understand their risk due to surge. Storm surge in particular ...

Abstract: The evolution and convergence of modeled storm surge were examined using a high-resolution implementation of the Advanced Circulation Coastal Ocean and Storm Surge (ADCIRC) model for Hurricane Gustav (2008). The storm surge ...

Abstract: ver the past decade, numerous field campaigns and laboratory experiments have examined air?sea momentum exchange in the deep ocean. These studies have changed the understanding of drag coefficient behavior in hurricane ...

Abstract: Southern Louisiana is characterized by low-lying topography and an extensive network of sounds, bays, marshes, lakes, rivers, and inlets that permit widespread inundation during hurricanes. A basin- to channel-scale ...
