    “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..."

    [I used to shore dive in the Straits Of Juan de Fucca, Washington State side, and Crescent Lake - so I chose that area as a CoNED example to explore; good memories, including of the 18 Wheeler Burger with pie & coffee in Joyce, WA on drizzly days]
