Journal ArticleDOI
The potential of wetlands in reducing storm surge
TL;DR: In this article, a numerical storm surge model was applied to assess the sensitivity of surge response to specified wetland loss, and results suggest that wetlands do have the potential to reduce surges but the magnitude of attenuation is dependent on the surrounding coastal landscape and the strength and duration of the storm forcing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sensitivity of hurricane surge to morphological parameters of coastal wetlands
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the sensitivity of storm-surge numerical modeling results to various coastal wetlands characteristics and evaluate the effects of marsh characteristics on hurricane surge, including bottom friction, elevation, and continuity (the ratio of healthy marsh to open water area within the total wetland area).
Journal ArticleDOI
Potential impact of sea level rise on coastal surges in southeast Louisiana
TL;DR: In this paper, the potential impacts of 0.5 and 1.0m of relative sea level rise (RSLR) on hurricane surge and waves in southeast Louisiana are investigated using the numerical storm surge model ADCIRC and the nearshore spectral wave model STWAVE.
Journal ArticleDOI
A surge response function approach to coastal hazard assessment – part 1: basic concepts
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed historical methods for estimating surge hazards and concluded that the class of solutions produced with Joint Probability Method (JPM) solutions provides a much more stable estimate of hazard levels than alternative methods.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of landscape restoration and degradation on storm surge and waves in southern Louisiana
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined storm surge and wave reduction benefits of different environmental restoration features (marsh restoration and barrier island changes), as well as the impact of future wetland degradation on local surge conditions.
