Before the 2nd round, we need to

1. incorporate better DEMs and improve the horizontal grid at a few regions
2. test the effect of wave for Ike

Feb 15 - First round of 3D runs are completed. Analyzed results and identified areas with large errors, which are to be fixed in the Round 2.

In-progress since Feb 20 (Linlin & Fei), expected to last for about 2 months based on the amount of work involved:

1. (Linlin and Fei) Testing new grid generation method for some local watershed regions along the East Coast. The purpose is to improves skills in small rivers and on HWMs. This will divert into two branches next, handled by Fei (Item 2) and Linlin (item 3) seperately.

2. (Fei) Introducing the latest 2021 MA-NH-ME CuDEM and apply the knowledge gained in (1). Use Sandy as a test case.

3. (Linlin) incorporate the steps in (1) as a pre-processing step of the whole model setup procedure.

Mar 14 - Wave runs completed for Sandy and Ike, analyzing the results.
