Impact of Current-wave Interactions on Storm Surge Simulation
Author: Yunfang Sun

ISBN:
Category : Hurricane Bob, 1991
Languages : en
Pages : 2
Book Description
Hurricane Bob moved up the US east coast and crossed over southern New England and the Gulf of Maine (with peak marine winds up to 100 mph) on 19-20 August 1991, causing significant damage along the coast and shelf. A three-dimensional fully wave-current coupled Finite-Volume Community Ocean Model (FVCOM) system was developed and applied to simulate and examine the coastal ocean responses to Hurricane Bob, Results from process study-oriented experiments show that wave-current interaction caused a significant change of the current direction and mixing, but had relatively little contribution to the maximum sea level along the coast. Diagnostic analyses suggest that the contribution of hurricane-derived wave-current interaction to the net water flux varies in space and time. the hurricane-induced wave-current interaction could generate strong vertical current shear in the stratified areas, leading to strong offshore transport near the bottom and enhanced water mixing over the continental shelf. Stratification also could result in a significant difference of water currents around islands where the water is not vertically well mixed.

Pages : 120
Book Description
This data report begins with a description of the water level network in place as Hurricane Isabel approached the U.S. east coast and the subsequent response of CO-OPS' stations, equipment, data monitoring systems, staff, and internet websites during the events of 18-19 September. ... A major part of the report is an analysis of the coastal water level response to Hurricane Isabel, giving the maximum observed water level recorded at each station.

Effects of Hurricane Floyd on Water Levels

Category : Atlantic Coast (U.S.)
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
"Hurricane Floyd was the strongest and most damaging hurricane of the 1999 Atlantic season. At its peak strength to was classified as a category 4 hurricane on the Saffir/Simpson Hurricane Scale. By the time it made landfall near Wilmington, NC it had weakened to a category 2 hurricane. Most of the damage and casualties attributed to the storm were due to heavy rainfall and flooding caused by the passage of the storm along the U.S. Atlantic coastline, The hardest hit area was eastern North Carolina. This report covers the data collected by the Center for Operational Oceanographic Products and Services (CO-OPS) during the passage of Floyd in the week of September 13-19, 1999. The storm track resulted in significant storm surges at almost all of CO-OPS' National Water Level Observations Network (NWLON) stations along the Atlantic Coast. At three stations, observed water levels exceeded their historical records. Previous major storm event data reports are listed in the reference section at the end of this report"--Introduction (page 1)
