DUNEX Collaboration
The DUNEX (DUring Nearshore Event eXperiment) project is a collaborative effort between multiple U.S. universities and agencies to study the dynamics of coastal systems and the effects of extreme weather events on beaches and dunes, utilizing advanced technologies and modeling approaches to improve the understanding and prediction of coastal hazards.
RAPID staff hosted a hands-on training and deployment workshop in collaboration with the During Nearshore Event eXperiment (DUNEX) at the U.S. Army’s Field Research Facility in Duck, NC. They provided participants from the coastal engineering community with the opportunity to develop expertise in using RAPID instrumentation (z-boat, short- and long-range scanners, various drones, water level gauges and grab samplers).
