SLOSH 1 (Sea, Lake and Overland Surges From Hurricanes)
SLOSH 1 (Sea, Lake and Overland Surges From Hurricanes) : A computerized model that is able to estimate the overland tidal surge heights and winds that result from hypothetical hurricanes with selected characteristics in pressure, size, forward speed, track and winds. The resultant tidal surge is then applied to a specific locale's shoreline, incorporating the unique bay and river configurations, water depths, bridges, roads and other physical features. The model estimates open coastline heights as well as surge heights over land, thus predicting the degree of propagation or run-up of the surge into inland areas
