On September 13, Deltares presented their results on coastal flooding and damages due to hurricanes Ian (2022), Idalia (2023), Beryl (2024) and Francine (2024) at the International Conference on Coastal Engineering in Rome. We showed that with fast reduced-complexity models we can obtain accurate results and use the computational gain to make ensemble forecasts. Access the presentation here.
We also published an ARCGIS storymap giving more detail on the models and results. Access it here.
A tool for production of rapid-repeat high-resolution coastal vegetation maps has been developed.
The NHCI project coordinated the airdrop of 16 surface wave buoys and subsurface water level sensors in the path of Hurricane Francine.
NOPP hosted a series of five virtual sessions in June and July of 2024 for the public to learn about the contributions and activities of the nine NOPP Hurricane Coastal Impacts (NHCI) project teams.
