Katrina_R3_elevation: Modeling the impacts of sand placement strategies on barrier island evolution in a semi-enclosed bay system: model input and results

Metadata Updated: November 26, 2025

Using version 5527 of the XBeach numerical model (Roelvink and others, 2009), barrier island morphological change was simulated at Little Dauphin Island, Alabama (AL) under different storm scenarios and restoration alternatives as described in Passeri and others (2025). The two-dimensional XBeach model can be applied to barrier islands to solve for time-dependent elevations (topography and bathymetry). The XBeach model setup requires the input of topographic and bathymetric elevations at each grid cell. Model inputs and outputs in the form of elevation at each grid cell are provided in this data release. For further information regarding model input generation and visualization of model output, refer to Passeri and others (2025).
