By St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center
2012 (approx.)
Detailed Description
Forecast assessment of storm vulnerability, New Jersey. The vulnerability of the coastline to erosion due to wave runup and storm surge: collision (waves reach base of dune), overwash (waves overtop dunes), and inundation (storm surge exceeds dune height). Collision and overwash were expected at all locations, and inundation was expected at a number of locations.

National Assessment of Coastal Change Hazards
The National Assessment of Coastal Change Hazards (NACCH) project develops hindcast, real-time, and forecast assessments of the magnitude or probability of coastal landscape change in response to persistent processes (e.g., shoreline change), extreme storms (e.g., Hurricane Sandy), and sea level rise. This effort depends on parallel collection of long- and short-term observations of coastal change...
