Storm surge and wave simulations in the Gulf of Mexico using a consistent drag relation for atmospheric and storm surge models
To simulate winds and water levels, numerical weather prediction (NWP) and storm surge models generally use the traditional bulk relation for wind stress, which is characterized by a wind drag coefficient. A still commonly used drag coefficient in those models, some of them were developed in the pas...
