Hurricane Helene Assessment of Potential Coastal-Change Impacts: NHC Advisory 12, 0500 AM EDT THURS SEP 26 2024
This dataset defines storm-induced coastal erosion hazards for the Mississippi, Alabama and Florida coastline. The analysis was based on a storm-impact scaling model that used observations of beach morphology combined with sophisticated hydrodynamic models to predict how the coast would respond to the direct landfall of Hurricane Helene in September 2024. Storm-induced water levels, due to both surge and waves, were compared to beach and dune elevations to determine the probabilities of three types of coastal change: collision (dune erosion), overwash, and inundation.
