RISModeling Vertical and Horizontal Diffusivities with the Sigma Coordinate System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The use of diffusive terms in numerical ocean models is examined relative to different coordinate systems. The conventional model for horizontal diffusion is found to be incorrect when bottom topographical slopes are large. ...
Atmospheric Response to Local Upwelling in the Vicinity of New York–New Jersey Harbor
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Multiply nested urbanized mesoscale model [Coupled Ocean?Atmosphere Mesoscale Prediction System (COAMPS)] simulations of the New York?New Jersey metropolitan region are conducted for 4?11 July 2004. The simulations differ ...
A Diagnostic Calculation of the General Circulation in the South Atlantic Bight
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A diagnostic calculation that involves integration of the geostrophic equations for total transport along contours of constant planetary potential vorticity (f/H) is described and applied to the South Atlantic Bight. The ...
Simulation of Airborne Transport and Dispersion for Urban Waterside Releases
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: esults are presented from a tracer-release modeling study designed to examine atmospheric transport and dispersion (?T&D?) behavior surrounding the complex coastal?urban region of New York City, New York, where air?sea ...
Street-Scale Modeling of Storm Surge Inundation along the New Jersey Hudson River Waterfront
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: new, high-resolution, hydrodynamic model that encompasses the urban coastal waters of New Jersey along the Hudson River Waterfront opposite New York City, New York, has been developed and validated for simulating inundation ...
Optimized Boundary Conditions and Data Assimilation with Application to the M2 Tide in the Yellow Sea
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An optimization approach is derived for assimilating tidal height information along the open boundaries of a numerical model. The approach is then extended so that similar data along transects inside a model domain can ...
A Coupled Circulation–Wave Model for Numerical Simulation of Storm Tides and Waves
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe Stevens Institute of Technology Estuarine and Coastal Ocean Model (sECOM) is coupled here with the Mellor?Donelan?Oey (MDO) wave model to simulate coastal flooding due to storm tides and waves. sECOM is the ...
Ensemble-Based Storm Surge Forecasting Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractAccurate prediction of storm surge is a difficult problem. Most forecast systems produce multiple possible forecasts depending on the variability in weather conditions, possible temperature levels, winds, etc. ...
Verification of a Multimodel Storm Surge Ensemble around New York City and Long Island for the Cool Season
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: hree real-time storm surge forecasting systems [the eight-member Stony Brook ensemble (SBSS), the Stevens Institute of Technology?s New York Harbor Observing and Prediction System (SIT-NYHOPS), and the NOAA Extratropical ...
Bottom Topography Mapping via Nonlinear Data Assimilation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: variational data assimilation method is described for bottom topography mapping in rivers and estuaries using remotely sensed observations of water surface currents. The velocity field and bottom topography are related by ...
