      <abstract>This dataset contains information on the probabilities of hurricane-induced erosion (collision, inundation and overwash) for each 1-kilometer (km) section of the United States [Gulf of Mexico and Atlantic] coast for category 1-5 hurricanes. The analysis is based on a storm-impact scaling model that uses observations of beach morphology combined with sophisticated hydrodynamic models to predict how the coast will respond to the direct landfall of category 1-5 hurricanes. Hurricane-induced water levels, due to both surge and waves, are compared to beach and dune elevations to determine the probabilities of three types of coastal change: collision (dune erosion), overwash, and inundation. Data on dune morphology (dune crest and toe elevation) and hydrodynamics (storm surge, wave setup and runup) are also included in this dataset. As new beach morphology observations and storm predictions become available, this analysis will be updated to describe how coastal vulnerability to storms will vary in the future. The data presented here include the dune morphology observations, as derived from lidar surveys.</abstract>

    <datacred>The predicted elevations of combined high tide and storm surge for category 1-5 hurricanes were extracted from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) SLOSH (Sea, Lake, and Overland Surges from Hurricanes) model, which has been employed by NOAA in inundation risk studies and operational storm surge forecasting. Wave runup and setup conditions were generated using Simulating WAves Nearshore (SWAN) software developed by Delft University of Technology (TU Delft).</datacred>

    <complete>This dataset includes dune morphology and hurricane hydrodynamic data used to generate probabilities of hurricane-induced erosion, elevation data from lidar surveys are not included. Measurements were collected approximately every 10-meters (m) and summarized to 1-km segments. Category 5 hurricane conditions are not provided by the NOAA SLOSH model for domains north of North Carolina. As a result, only water levels and probabilities for Categories 1-4 hurricanes are provided in the U.S. Mid-Atlantic and U.S. Northeast regions of this dataset.</complete>

      <vertacc>
        <vertaccr>Vertical accuracy for hydrodynamic measurements (surge, setup, and runup) is dependent on input data. SLOSH model accuracy is estimated to be +/- 20 percent of the calculated value. Modeled wave heights were compared to observed wave heights at several buoys located at different water depths throughout the Gulf of Mexico and simulated wave heights were representative of maximum possible wave heights for each hurricane category. No other accuracy checks were performed.
Vertical accuracy for dune morphology (dune crest and toe elevation) data is dependent on the positional accuracy of the lidar data. Estimated accuracy of lidar surveys are +/- 15 centimeters. However, vertical accuracies may vary based on the type of terrain (for example, inaccuracies may increase as slope increases or with the presence of extremely dense vegetation), the accuracy of the global positioning system (GPS) and aircraft-attitude measurements.</vertaccr>

        <procdesc>For dune morphology data: Elevation data from lidar surveys were interpolated in MATLAB to a gridded domain that was rotated parallel to the shoreline and had a resolution of 10 m in the longshore direction and 2.5 m in the cross-shore direction. The interpolation method applied spatial filtering with a Hanning window that was twice as wide as the grid resolution. Dune morphology data were extracted from the elevation grid in MATLAB. Dune morphology data were then summarized to 1 km sections. Sections with greater than 75 percent of data missing were flagged with the invalid number of -999. The 1-km smoothed dune crest (DHIGH), toe (DLOW) and root mean square (RMS) error for each were written to line shapefiles using MATLAB shapewrite.m script. Each state was processed separately and then combined into regional datasets. The regional datasets were published as USGS Open-File Reports and data releases. The citation information for those datasets can be found in the Cross_Reference section of this metadata. This dataset combines all four regions (northeast, mid-Atlantic, southeast, and Gulf coasts) into one dataset.

        <procdesc>Probabilities of coastal erosion hazards are based on estimating the likelihood that the beach system will experience erosion and deposition patterns consistent with collision, overwash, or inundation regimes. The regimes are calculated by using values of dune morphology and mean and extreme water levels for each 1 km section, such that probability of collision (PCOL) occurs when extreme water levels reach the dune toe; overwash (POVW) when extreme water levels reach the dune crest; and inundation (PIND) when mean water levels reach the dune crest. Probabilities were calculated in MATLAB and exported in ArcGIS format.
