  • Predicting the longshore-variable coastal response to hurricanes

    Creator:
    Stockdon, Hilary F.
    Abstract:
    The longshore variability of the coastal response to hurricanes may be examined within the framework of a storm-impact scaling model that compares spatially-variable beach morphology and fluid forcing. The relative elevations of dune height and storm-induced water levels are used to define three impact regimes (swash, collision, and overwash), within...
