Why are 2d rather than 3d flow models used for storm surge forecasting?

I am looking for good reasons, beyond the obvious ones (e.g. computational efficiency), to use only 2d flow models for storm surge forecasting. We have nowadays quite sophisticated modeling...

How do you compute Aerosol concentration from a Wave Spectrum?

The aerosol concentration over the ocean depends mostly on wave breaking and the wind speed. However, the wind speed is somehow included in the wind input source term which on the other hand...

Can anyone help with turbulence closure in 3d flow models?

In certain flow models the turbulence closure in the vertical is different than in the horizontal. Other models neglect also the transport equation of turbulence energy and dissipation in the...
