. Coastal and inlet processes numerical modeling system for Oregon Inlet, North Carolina. Coast changes; Coastal engineering; Hydrodynamics. Figure 21. Numerical grids used for tidal and storm surge computations in this study are shown. The storm surge ("offshore model") grid covers a very large area since it is necessary that the winds that produce the surge be modeled. Wind fields associated with storms can cover very large areas. The tidal grid ("nearshore model") covers a smaller area than the storm surge grid but a larger area than the shore processes grid. The tidal g

The tidal grid ("nearshore model") covers a smaller area than the storm surge grid but a larger area than the shore processes grid. The tidal grid must cover a moderately large area in order to include all of the inlets that connect the sound areas with the ocean. 55. Tidal and storm surge computations performed on the grids shown in Figure 21 were used to provide boundary conditions for tidal and storm surge 44.
