Sub-regional tier 3 simulations cover portions of the Northern California open-coast region for Humboldt County and they provide final modeled hazard outputs going into projected hazard products. Simulations are run for several storm events (covering a range of no storm, 1-year, 20-year, and 100-year coastal storm conditions) and sea-level rise (SLR) scenarios. Purpose: This work is part of on-going modeling efforts for California and the western United States. 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. These data are intended for science researchers, technical users, and students. Supplemental_Information: This work is one supporting part of ongoing modeling efforts for California and the western United States.

See Deltares manual (2024) for a description (and applicable units) of model files. Model domains are identified by sequential numbers, starting with ‘grid22’ at the southern end of Humboldt County and increasing northwards, to cover Humboldt County and portions of adjacent counties. Models are set up in the cartesian coordinate system (UTM 10) and elevations are referenced to NAVD88. Model grid/setup validated for storm system in January 2010 using boundary conditions from tier 2 simulations for the same period; water level RMSE is 14 cm at North Spit tide gage; domains without tide gages are compared to validated tier 2 output and adjacent overlapping domains.

Source_Used_Citation_Abbreviation: DEM Source_Used_Citation_Abbreviation: cliff retreat Source_Used_Citation_Abbreviation: shoreline change Process_Date: 20231215 Source_Produced_Citation_Abbreviation: adjusted grids for SLR scenarios Process_Step: Process_Description: Setup files adjusted for all storm scenarios simulated in sub-regional tier 2 models. Water level and wave data were extracted from each tier 2 simulation to serve as boundary conditions for the XBeach model domains; additionally, the same discharge timeseries used in tier 2 simulations are used in XBeach simulations. XBeach models are set up and run for the same storm events used in tier 2 models, identified from future climate conditions (tier 2). For each event, setup files (water level, discharge and wave forcing files) are adjusted to use the extracted tier 2 boundary output as conditions; discharge estimates were synced to the onset of storm conditions, as in tier 2. For each storm event, simulations are run with a range of SLR: 0 m, 0.5 m, 1.0 m, 1.5 m, 2.0 m, 3.0 m, and 5.0 m. Model output was checked for quality and consistency. As done in tier 2 and described in O'Neill and others (2018, 2024), all simuliations are run over a representive spring tide in November 2010. All storm event conditions are synced to this representative tide cycle. See O'Neill and others (2018, 2024) on scenario setup and Erikson and others (2018) for information on storm selection.
