Kobayashi and Zhu (2017) developed a simple analytical model to predict bay peak still-water elevation in Indian River Bay and Rehoboth Bay for given ocean peak still-water elevation and surge duration at Lewes . 27 storms identified during 2005-2015 were used to calibrate the dimensionless parameter K* related to the inlet and bay characteristics. The agreement is within 10% at tide gauges I and R and within 30% at tide gauge D.}, number={36}, journal={Coastal Engineering Proceedings}, author={Zhu, Tingting and Kobayashi, Nobuhisa}, year={2018}, month={Dec.}, pages={waves.58} }
