SUMMARY

This project advances the modeling capabilities of the real-time ADCIRC system for predicting hazards and potential impacts from tropical and extratropical cyclones on critical infrastructure and communities in the United States. The primary focus is on improving wind, coastal ocean circulation, wave, and hydrological modeling of combined multiple hazard impacts, including coastal flooding due to storm surge and inland flooding due to rainfall.
