In addition, the team is examining sediment transport impacts (in particular sedimentation) and water quality impacts. The storm surge modeling system consists of a course-grid ADCIRC model and a fine-grid Delft3D model. The validation of the storm surge model and some calculations of inundation frequency\/intensity will be the subject of a presentation or poster at the Dec. 2012 AGU Fall Meeting. An example of a preliminary calculation of inundation is shown in the figure below. The modeling will soon be extended to examine effects of climate-change-induced sea level rise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" href=\"https:\/\/scholarworks.alaska.edu\/handle\/11122\/6169\">View Presentation<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/coeng.uaa.alaska.edu\/innovation\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/image-9-edited.jpeg\" alt=\"Modeling of Storm-Induced Inundation, Sediment Transport, and Water Quality Impacts on the Yukon Kuskokwim Delta\" class=\"wp-image-1247\" width=\"721\" height=\"961.3333333333334\" srcset=\"https:\/\/coeng.uaa.alaska.edu\/innovation\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/image-9-edited.jpeg 497w, https:\/\/coeng.uaa.alaska.edu\/innovation\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/image-9-edited-225x300.jpeg 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 497px) 100vw, 497px\" \/><figcaption>Model storm-induced inundation in central portion of the YK Delta during the 2005 storm.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tom Ravens and research assistant Jon Allen are developing a storm surge modeling system to examine the frequency and severity of storm-induced inundation of the YK Delta.
