a Inundation heights (color scale) above ground for 135 coastal high water mark locations (diamonds) along the Texas coast, measured in the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey in August 2017. b Maximum water levels (color scale) measured at 34 tide gauge locations (circles) and simulated at 42 additional output locations (squares). Measured and simulated water level time series (hydrographs) at Packery Channel (c), High Island (d), and Freshwater Canal Locks (e) tide gauge stations.
