    “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..."

    “NOAA has upgraded its tidal datum calculation tool with new integrated features! [links above] Did you know you can use this resource to perform your own tidal datum computations and understand local flood frequency?
    The Tidal Datum Analysis Calculator is available now for users to input their data to help make informed decisions on tidal flooding, coastal inundation, and other critical coastal issues.
    With the National Tidal Datum Epoch release rescheduled for 2029, this tool serves as a resource for stakeholders to analyze and understand water level data in their areas of interest by calculating preliminary datums relative to the new epoch…”
