Simulating storm surge and compound flooding events with a creek-to-ocean model: Importance of baroclinic effects
We present a creek-to-ocean 3D baroclinic model based on unstructured grids that aims to
unite traditional hydrologic and ocean models in a single modeling platform, by taking full …

How does buoyancy behavior impact microplastic transport in an estuarine environment?
Much is still unknown about the transport behavior of microplastic pollutants within the
marine environment, particularly smaller scale coastal systems such as estuaries. Through …

Compounding factors for extreme flooding around Galveston Bay during Hurricane Harvey
Coastal hazard is rarely driven by only one source, as exemplified by the compound
flooding from Hurricane Harvey in Galveston Bay in 2017. A 3D creek-to-ocean model is …
