| Description |
The Coastal Change Hazards Technical Capabilities and Applications project at the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) provides technical capabilities in observing and forecasting storm impacts to our nation's coastlines. This geospatial dataset defines the alongshore extent of overwash sediments deposited along the coast of Florida and attributed to coastal processes during [Atlantic Basin] Hurricane Ian, which made landfall in the U.S. on September 28, 2022. Overwash extents are used to validate and improve forecasts of coastal change. See Birchler and others (2019) and Gorski and others (2024) for examples of the application of overwash extents to forecast validation. [More]
