Wave setup was modelled using parameterization for open coast sandy beaches as presented in Stockdon and others (2006). The parameterization relates onshore wave setup to offshore wave conditions and beach characteristics. Wave conditions were extracted at approximately the 10 m depth contour and reverse shoaled to the deep-water condition. These data were then matched to cross-shore transects spaced at approximately 1 km along the coastline. Beach slope at these transects were extracted from lidar (Doran and others, 2017) and temporally averaged across all available datasets. This dataset is forced by waves taken directly from the ERA5 reanalysis, which incorporates observations and data assimilation (Hersbach and others, 2020). Therefore, data presented in this data release represent a best prediction of the observed historical wave setup along the study region. This dataset and the methodology used for its production is further detailed in Parker and others (2023). Modeled wave setup time series are presented for the hindcast period 1979 to 2019. Output includes 1-hour wave setup provided at approximately 1,600 alongshore transects at approximately 1-5 km resolution. Data are available as csv files for each transect location and are bundled by state. Purpose: These data are intended for policy makers, resource managers, science researchers, students, and the general public. These data can be used with geographic information systems or other software to identify and assess possible areas of vulnerability. These data are not intended to be used for navigation.

Online_Linkage: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.coastaleng.2005.12.005 Data_Quality_Information: Attribute_Accuracy: Attribute_Accuracy_Report: Wave setup presented in this dataset is approximate and based on parameterization that relates a limited set of inputs to wave setup experienced at the coast. Wave setup is expected to be dominated by error in the utilized parametrization. Stockdon and others, (2006) assessed the accuracy of the utilized parameterization as having a root mean square error of 21 cm and accuracy of this dataset is expected to be of a similar magnitude. Accuracy of this dataset is expected to be of a similar magnitude. Logical_Consistency_Report: Data have undergone quality checks and fall within expected/reasonable ranges. Completeness_Report: Dataset is considered complete for the information presented, as described in the abstract. Users are advised to read the rest of the metadata record carefully for additional details. Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report: Data are concurrent with specified transect locations Vertical_Positional_Accuracy: Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Report: A comprehensive accuracy assessment was not performed for the dataset due to a lack of wave setup observations along the coastline. Rather, this dataset should be considered as a first order approximation of experienced wave setup. The error in this approximation is likely dominated by the utilized parameterization which was assessed to have root mean square error of 21 cm.

Hourly wave statistics (significant wave height, peak wave period, and mean wave direction) data were downloaded. Wave data were extracted at alongshore locations along approximately the 10m depth contour. These data were then reverse shoaled to the deep-water condition using linear wave theory. Source_Used_Citation_Abbreviation: ERA5 Process_Date: 20210201 Process_Step: Process_Description: The North and South Carolina wave data were matched to transects along the southeast Atlantic coastline. Transects were spaced at approximately 1-5 km along the coast extending in the cross-shore direction. Process_Date: 20210401 Process_Step: Process_Description: Beach morphology information was obtained using the lidar derived dataset of Doran and others (2017). Beach slope information was linearly interpolated to the cross-shore transects for all available times and then temporally averaged at each location. Beach slopes were then spatially smoothed using a Hanning filter following the method of Doran and others (2015). Source_Used_Citation_Abbreviation: lidar Process_Date: 20210501 Process_Step: Process_Description: Wave setup was calculated at each transect using the parametrization of Stockdon and others (2006) for every hourly timestep as described in Parker and others (2023).
