On today’s episode of DesignSafe Radio, we speak with a professor at the University of Texas at Austin that has 25 years of experience with coastal engineering and storm surge research, Clint Dawson.
Storm surge is the flooding induced by the winds from a hurricane. Dawson explains his extensive research on storm surges, how it impacts communities and infrastructures, and how the software ADCIRC is utilized in storm surge research.
