    “HIGHLIGHTS:
    • Coastal flood mitigation is studied with hydrodynamic and idealized semi-analytical modeling.
    • Mechanisms of flood wave dissipation, storage and reflection are quantified and evaluated.
    • A storm surge barrier for Jamaica Bay, New York, stops but reflects a 100-year flood wave.
    • Nature-based strategies can attenuate a storm surge with minimal induced flooding.
    • Partial reflection shifts the reflected storm surge wave phase, limiting water level increases..."

  6. The #CowichanRiver #estuary is one of the largest & most important in #BritishColumbia. The #watershed drains 90,000 hectares & provides #CriticalHabitat to dozens of #fish species, including #steelhead, #Chinook, #chum, #coho & #PinkSalmon, as well as brown, #cutthroat & #RainbowTrout. But the #Cowichan’s troubles are by no means unique; they are a #CaseStudy for a much larger problem.

    #TimberCompanies store #LogBooms all along the #BCcoast, says Jamieson Atkinson, a fish #biologist & program manager for the #Aquatic #Research & #Restoration Centre at #BritishColumbiaConservationFoundation. “It’s shocking.” While #estuaries make up less than 3% of British Columbia’s coast, they provide rich #habitat for 80% of the province’s coastal #wildlife. The #FraserRiver estuary, near #Vancouver on the mainland, supports more than 300 species of #birds & 80 species of fish & #shellfish for at least part of their life cycles.
