Miscellaneous
This course explains the basic formulations used in the cross-scale SCHISM model, including the recent new developments. Hands-on tutorials will be conducted to familiarize the trainees with the basic tools useful for the modeling system. Although no formal pre-requisites are expected, trainees with prior UG model experience may find it easier to learn. Upon completion the trainees will have acquired basic knowledge on workflow in typical SCHISM simulations and be able to conduct simulations for cross-scale baroclinic processes as found in geophysical fluid dynamics (GFD)

Presentations
Storm surge-induced coastal inundation poses numerous personal, commercial, industrial, and sociopolitical challenges for society. Flooding can be caused by the combination of storm surge and river-induced inland flooding in many locations throughout the coastal plain. The cross-disciplinary nature of the hydrodynamics involved (hydraulics, oceanography, and hydrology), coupled with the complexity of the atmospheric forcing, makes a numerical model the best approach for a comprehensive study of the dynamics of coastal inundation.
This study builds upon the lessons learned from forecast modeling experiences during 2011 Hurricane Irene in Tidewater Virginia, to ascertain the most effective way to approach predicting street-level inundation. …
