String summary "A new modeling approach was implemented to simulate wave-induced coastal inundation. Using the Boussinesq Approach of Rapid Runup Assessment with CUDA (BARRACUDA), a Boussinesq phase-resolving model, we simulated overland inundation depths under selected combinations of wave scenarios, the presence or absence of mangrove vegetation, and projected long-term sea level rise (SLR). The simulations represent three wave scenarios: (i) No Waves (Static), (ii) Annual High Wave Flooding, and (iii) Historic High Wave Flooding, using wave data extracted from Typhoon Bopha (2012). Furthermore, wave-driven flooding is simulated with and without the presence of mangroves to assess mangrove attenuation effects. All simulations are repeated under sea level rise (SLR) projections ranging from 0 to 10 feet (3m), in 1-foot increments. Modeling was carried out over a high-resolution digital elevation model (DEM) using topobathymetric LiDAR data from the Office of Palau Automated Land and Resources Information System (PALARIS). Flooding depths are computed relative to Mean Higher High Water (MHHW), derived from tide gauge observations at Malakal, Koror. Results are gridded at 5-m resolution and span the eastern coastline of Babeldaob Island in the Republic of Palau, from Ngerechur Island on the northern tip of Ngarchelong State southwards to Tabrengesang Park in Ngchesar State.";

Data Access Protocol (DAP)
and its
projection constraints
.
The URL specifies what you want: the dataset, a description of the graph or the subset of the data, and the file type for the response.
griddap request URLs must be in the form
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/griddap/datasetID.fileType{?query}
For example,
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/griddap/jplMURSST41.htmlTable?analysed_sst[(2002-06-01T09:00:00Z)][(-89.99):1000:(89.99)][(-179.99):1000:(180.0)]
Thus, the query is often a data variable name (e.g., analysed_sst),
followed by [(start):stride:(stop)]
(or a shorter variation of that) for each of the variable's dimensions
(for example, [time][latitude][longitude]).
For details, see the griddap Documentation.
