Coastal Storm Modeling System (CoSMoS) for Northern California 3.2 (ver. 1e, October 2024)
This dataset includes coastal flood and associated hazard projections for Humboldt County from Coastal Storm Modeling System (CoSMoS).
CoSMoS makes detailed predictions (meter-scale) over large geographic scales (100s of kilometers) of storm-induced coastal flooding and erosion for both current and future sea-level rise (SLR) scenarios. CoSMoS 3.2 for Northern California shows projections for future climate scenarios including a range of sea-level rise (SLR, 0 - 5 m) and storm conditions (covering a range of no storm, 1-year, 20-year, and 100-year coastal storm conditions) to provide emergency responders and coastal planners with critical storm-hazards information that can be used to increase public safety, mitigate physical damages, and more effectively manage and allocate resources within complex coastal settings.
