“How do coastal nature-based solutioNBS
ns reduce flooding in one area and not induce flooding elsewhere? Conversely, what characteristics and processes can lead gray infrastructure to cause flooding outside of their protected area?”
--
“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..."
