Description:

Abstract:

Cross-shore transects (CSTs) developed for Coastal Storm Model (CoSMoS) work in Northern California 3.2 are presented. 3,528 CSTs are numbered consecutively from 8067 at Golden Gate Bridge to 11,594 at the California/Oregon state border. Each of the profiles extend from the approximate -15 m isobath to at least 10 m above NAVD88 (truncated in cases where a lagoon or other waterway exists on the landward end of the profile), and are spaced approximately 100-250 m apart.

Purpose:

The Coastal Storm Modeling system uses several tiers of numerical models to make detailed predictions (meter-scale) of flooding and erosion over large geographic scales. This requires a common structure for comparison of data and for boundary conditions for higher-resolution models. Cross-shore transects (CSTs) allow this common structure and are presented for CoSMoS Northern California 3.2. These data are intended for science researchers and technical users.

Supplemental_Information:

This work is one supporting part of ongoing modeling efforts for California and the western United States. For information on data sources and details on methodology of this dataset, see source information below.

defined alongshore model-output site locations modified for use in Northern California

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

Alongshore transect locations from Coastal Data Information Program (CDIP) were modified (onshore position adjusted) to better capture cross-shore profiles for shorelines of interest and avoid large offshore rocks (when able). Keeping offshore positions the same or close to originating MOnitoring and Prediction (MOP) lines was a priority, to preserve the ability to compare data from other efforts using CDIP's MOPv1.1 transect lines.
