Abstract

This project is related to the development and use of low-cost, do-it-yourself (DIY) commercial electronic sensors for measuring storm surge and waves in coastal areas. The original purpose of the project was to build and deploy large numbers of pressure sensors capable of sampling at frequencies high enough to characterize wind- and vessel-generated waves in relatively shallow water (
