This grant from the Department of Coastal Research aims to provide support for research on barrier island responses to sea level rise and sediment supply. The project focuses on developing a modeling framework to integrate observations of barrier island geomorphology and sediment flux. Researchers will parameterize observations and modify existing models to enhance understanding of long-term morphologic changes in barrier islands. The closing date for applications is February 12, 2019.

| Description: |
The assistance award supports the formulation of a focused modeling framework and/or synthesis of barrier island responses to sea level rise and other drivers, such as sediment supply. The objective of this project is to integrate observations of barrier island geomorphology and sediment supply/flux into a morphodynamic modeling framework through appropriate parameterization of observations and alteration and/or expansion of a morphodynamic barrier response model. |
