Book excerpt: "This report is a study of the Beaufort Sea wave climate for the Northern Oil and Gas Action Program. Extreme waves were estimated using modeled wave data and the joint probabilities of storm and ice conditions. A shallow water wave model was developed. This was used to hindcast a set of past Beaufort storms. Scientific errors were estimated for each stage of these analyses"--Abstract.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study, the two most recently publicly available hindcast studies for the Beaufort Sea have been reviewed. The studies, conducted respectively by Hydrotechnology and Seaconsult, differ markedly in their treatment of the storm windfields and the available fetch length. Consequently, there is a considerable disparity between their estimate of extreme wave heights for deep water conditions, although for shallow water the agreement is more favourable. A systematic assessment of their respective methodologies indicated factors which would help to undo some of the conservatism in the Seaconsult estimates and warrant a slight increase in the Hydrotechnology results.

Book excerpt: "The objective of this study is to update the previous Beaufort hindcast undertaken by Gulf Canada Resources Inc. and described in Baird and Hall (1980). As a part of this update the procedures followed in the original hindcast study were to be re-examined with the benefit of the wind and wave data recorded at the various drilling sites during 1980, 1981, and 1982. This report summarized the recorded overwater and overland wind data which are available for the update of the Beaufort Sea hindcast. ... (Au)"--ASTIS[online] database.

Download or read book A Hindcast Study of Extreme Water Levels in the Beaufort Sea written by Donald Ormond Hodgins and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Extreme significant wave heights, and extreme water levels produced by the addition of wind-generated waves, storm surge and tide, have been calculated in the present study for return periods of 1, 10, 50 and 100 years. These results are specified at 10 sites, ranging in depth from shallow water near the coast to deep water north of Herschel Island. ... The wind-generated waves hindcast in the present study are roughly 2 to 2ư times larger than those derived by IRC (1974) for Imperial Oil Company, Ltd. There are two major causes for this difference: a) the present study has revised the long-return period wind speeds upward from the previous hindcast, and it has used a fully two-dimensional storm-based wind field presentation to the wave model to give an improved extreme wind description over that used by IRC (1974) and b) the present study has defined the open-water generation area by the furthest observed offshore ice-edge, resulting in much longer fetches than used in the previous study. ... it was concluded that the observed wave height data base is presently too short to give reliable extreme wave estimates and that hindcasting based on the meteorological data base is the only viable method for obtaining design wave length"--Page i.

Book excerpt: "The objective of this study was to produce, via hindcasting, a climatology for extreme storm waves in the Beaufort Sea, to be used as a reference for design considerations of offshore structures. Phase 1 of this study was aimed at reviewing previous environmental studies for the Beaufort region, and establishing an appropriate procedure to provide the design reference information, selecting an appropriate spectral wave model, selecting severe storms affecting the Canadian Beaufort Sea region, and evaluation of model hindcasts. Phase II of the study consisted of the final selection of the top severe storm population, hindcast production, extremal analysis, treatment of ice edge and presentation of final results. Already at the outset, it was realized that considerable effort would be required in order to provide adequate overwater wind fields and specification of the effects of sea ice and shallow water. Compared to previous studies with similar objectives for other areas such as the Canadian East and West Coasts or the Gulf of St. Lawrence, the number of available marine observations of weather and sea state from ships and rigs in the Beaufort is relatively small. The selection and hindcast of the potential severe storms is further complicated by the existence of sea ice. Extra care must therefore be taken when determining the wind and ice fields. Due to the special operating conditions in the Beaufort Sea, where drilling is mostly carried out on structures which differ from those used elsewhere, different considerations must be taken for establishing design criteria and critical conditions, and when selecting severe storm events for hindcasting. Some effort was therefore put into estimating which storms were likely to generate extreme currents, for example, as these would likely increase the potential for erosion of artificial islands"--Leaf 1-1.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thoroughly revised and expanded edition of the much acclaimed Encyclopedia of Coastal Science edited by M. Schwarz (Springer 2005), presents an interdisciplinary approach that includes biology, ecology, engineering, geology, geomorphology, oceanography, remote sensing, technological advances, and anthropogenic impacts on coasts. Within its covers the Encyclopedia of Coastal Science, 2nd ed. brings together and coordinates many aspects of coastal and related sciences that are widely dispersed in the scientific literature. The broadly interdisciplinary subject matter of this volume features contributions by over 280 well-known international specialists in their respective fields and provides an abundance of figures in full-color with line drawings and photographs, and other illustrations such as satellite images. Not only does this volume offer a large number of new and revised entries, it also includes an illustrated glossary of coastal geomorphology, extensive bibliographic citations, and cross-references. It provides a comprehensive reference work for students, scientific and technical professionals as well as administrators, managers, and informed lay readers. Reviews from the first edition: Awarded for Excellence in Scholarly and Professional Publishing: “Honorable Mention”, in the category Single Volume/Science from the Association of American Publishers (AAP) 2005. "The contents and approach are interdisciplinary and, under a single cover, one finds subjects normally scattered throughout scientific literature." "The topics cover a broad spectrum, so does the geographic range of the contributors. ... besides geomorphologists, biologists, ecologists, engineers, geographers, geologists, oceanographers and technologists will find information related to their respective fields ... . Inclusion of appendices ... is very useful. The illustrated glossary of geomorphology will prove very useful for many of us ... ." Roger H. Charlier, Journal of Coastal Research, Volume 21, Issue 4, Page 866, July 2005. "It is an excellent work that should be included in any carefully selected list of best science reference books of the year "Summing Up: Highly recommended. " M.L. Larsgaard, Choice, Volume 43, Issue 6, Page 989, February 2006. "This volume is a comprehensive collection of articles covering all aspects of the subject: social and economic, engineering, coastal processes, habitats, erosion, geological features, research and observation." ... "As with similar works reviewed, I chose to read articles on familiar topics to see if they covered the expected, and some on unfamiliar topics to see if they could be readily understood. The book passed both tests, but the style is denser and more fact-filled than most of the encyclopedias I have reviewed." John Goodier, Reference Reviews, Volume 20, Issue 2, pages 35-36, 2006
