Back in August 2011, Hurricane Irene struck the mid-Atlantic coast.  This animated graph shows how the storm surge from Irene and the terrestrial flooding from Irene and Tropical Storm Lee (a few days later) impacted water surface elevations in the Delaware Estuary.

This post is the third in a series revisiting older data visualizations using R.  Water surface elevation data is from the NOAA-PORTS system and non-tidal flow at the Delaware River at Trenton and the Schuylkill River at Philadelphia is from USGS NWIS.  You can see similar visualizations of the impact of Superstorm Sandy in the Delaware Estuary and Barnegat Bay.  You can also check out the older version of this same visualization.

You can see the full length version of the entire event on YouTube.

Here's an app that illustrates how fertility and death rates impact the US age structure diagram over time.  The app uses a simple population model to forecast the US age structure in 100 years, starting from 2010 census data and user-selected fertility and death rates.

You can find and play with the app at https://johnyagecic.shinyapps.io/AgeStructureShiny/
