Download or read book Storm surge Forecasting written by J. W. Nickerson and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The report contains an adaptation of a unique storm-surge forecasting technique developed by Dr. C.P. Jelesnianski. This technique results in a computed storm surge profile at the inner boundary of an artificial standard basin seaward of the coast. The profile is derived from nomograms based upon a standard storm passing over a standard basin. Thumb rules and guidelines are presented in the publication for subjectively modifying the computer storm surge height as it moves shoreward of the artificial basin boundary, to fit the natural conditions of a particular coastline. Major advantages of this system are its applicability to almost any locale, its adaptability to data normally available to the field forecaster and the speed with which the forecast may be modified to remain current with natural fluctuations of the storm.

Book excerpt: "This guidance was implemented by the Techniques Development Laboratory (TDL) during the late-1970s. One finding of the NOAA Disaster Survey team that investigated the Halloween Storm was that many forecasters were unfamiliar with the techniques used by, and the characteristics of, the MRPECS guidance (NOAA 1992). This document is intended to provide an overview of the MRPECS bulletin by reviewing its development, assessing strengths and weaknesses of the product, and discussing forthcoming changes, as well as new developmental efforts"--Introduction.

This book was released on 2016 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The ESTOFS-Pacific was implemented operationally by NCEP Central Operations (NCO) on the Weather and Climate Operational Supercomputing System (WCOSS) to provide 180-hr forecast guidance of surge combined with tides, astronomical tides, and sub-tidal water levels (the isolated surge) throughout the domain. The ESTOFS provides the National Weather Service (NWS) with a second extratropical surge system in addition to the Extratropical Storm Surge (ETSS) model that currently is based on the Sea Lake and Overland Surge from Hurricanes (SLOSH) model (Jelesnianski et al., 1992). ESTOFS-Pacific fills NWS gaps in operational storm surge and tide modeling coverage in Hawaii. This model serves the needs of local Weather Forecast Offices (WFOs) for coastal marine forecasts. Forecasters will benefit from the gridded astronomic tide predictions that are provided by ESTOFS-Pacific, which can be combined with any gridded surge prediction (generated from model guidance or forecaster). The ESTOFS is also designed to provide the surge with tides to WAVEWATCH III® (WW3) for coupling wave predictions to coastal water levels. ESTOFS uses the same Global Forecast System (GFS) forcing and has the same forecast cycle and length as WW3. Output from ESTOFS-Pacific is disseminated by NCEP's Ocean Prediction Center (OPC) and NWS' Office of Science and Technology/Meteorological Development Laboratory (OST/MDL)"--Page vii.

This book was released on 1974 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Weather Service (NWS) has developed a technique for forecasting extratropical storm surges along the northeast coast of the United States. The storm surge is caused mainly by the strong winds associated with extra-tropical storms over nearshore areas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Flooding is a global phenomenon that claims countless lives worldwide each year. Beginning in 2008 at the Institution of Civil Engineers in London this book contains papers presented at the 5th conference in the successful series on Flood Recovery, Innovation and Response. When flooding occurs in populated areas, it can cause substantial damage to property as well as threatening human life. Apart from the physical damage to buildings, contents and loss of life, which are the most obvious impacts of floods upon households, indirect losses are often overlooked. These indirect and intangible impacts are generally associated with disruption to normal life as well as longer term health issues including stress related illness. In many parts of the developing world, flooding can represent a major barrier to the alleviation of poverty as vulnerable communities are often exposed to sudden and life threatening events. How we respond and adapt to the challenges of flooding is key to developing our long term resilience. This book provides a platform for the work of researchers, academics and practitioners actively involved in improving our understanding of flood events and our approaches to response, recovery and resilience. A wide range of technical and management topics related to flooding and its impact are included: Flood management; Flood warning; Flood risk adaptation Flood protection - products and processes; Flood risk modelling; Flood forecasting; Flood vulnerability; Urban flood modelling; Flood risk assessment and recovery; Climate change impact; Socio and economic impact; Flood case studies; Flood damage assessment; Storm water control.
