Coastal Storm Modeling-System Integration
The US Army Corps of Engineers' Engineer Research and Development Center's Coastal Storm Modeling System (CSTORM-MS) is a physics-based modeling capability for simulating tropical and extra-tropical storm, wind, wave, water level and coastal response (erosion, breaching, and accretion). The goal is to more rigorously represent the underlying physical processes and reduce dependence on empirical tuning factors, while also providing a powerful and user-friendly interface to the models. Focused research and a spiral development strategy are producing an integrated suite of tools to support a wide range of coastal engineering needs. CSTORM-MS provides for a robust, standardized approach to establishing the risk of coastal communities to future occurrences of storm events. Details of the system are presented.
