This project includes SFINCS (Super-Fast INundation of CoastS) and ADCIRC model outputs of hurricane flood depths. We simulated water levels for Hurricanes Florence (2018), Matthew (2016), and Floyd (1999) across North and South Carolina on the U.S. Atlantic coast in the present (hindcast) and a future climate (4 degrees C of warming). The ADCIRC results are simulations of coastal processes (e.g., tides, storm surge). The SFINCS results are simulations of runoff (e.g., streamflow, rainfall) and coastal processes.
