Description:

To improve numerical computations of coastal storm surges, a mildly curved coastline is shifted or sheared onto a straight "baseline". A surface plane, truncated from the ocean shelf and containing the curved coast as a boundary, is fitted with a curved, non-orthogonal grid. The plane with curved boundaries is then transformed via a sheared coordinate system onto an image rectangle.
