“…Advection can be substantial in areas that experience rapid lateral changes in velocity, such as might be expected in regions of rapid change in topography and geometry, particularly with curvature along the coastline (Kolar, Gray, et al, 1994;Li, 2006;Li et al, 2008). A few studies have found that advection can be important in tide and storm surge hydrodynamics (Gou et al, 2023;Hope et al, 2013;Kerr et al, 2013;Li, 2006;Li et al, 2008;Parker, 1991;Rego & Li, 2010;Sheng & Wang, 2004;Tsai et al, 2022). For a hindcast of Hurricane Ike, Kerr et al (2013) concluded that advection improved simulated model performance by capturing an additional 10-20 cm of water level setup.…”
