Book excerpt: "This report describes procedures that were used to hindcast marine winds for 14 severe Beaufort Sea storms on a 20-minute latitude by 60 minute longitude grid. These procedures were developed by MacLaren PlanSearch Ltd. and Dr. V. cardone of Oceanweather Inc. and are incorporated into a Beaufort Sea Storm Hindcast System implemented on a Compac 386 microcomputer. This provides the capability of hindcasting other severe storms as necessary. Special modifications were made to the Marine Planetary Boundary Layer Model for winter Arctic conditions, which are characterized by low inversion heights and large geostrophic/surface wind turning angles, and for marginal ice zone conditions. These modifications follow the work of Dr. Overland (1985)." -- abstract.

This book was released on 1988 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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.

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.
Book Synopsis A Hindcast Study of Extreme Water Levels in the Beaufort Sea by : Donald Ormond Hodgins
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.

Download or read book Beaufort Sea Extreme Wave Studies Assessment written by M. Alan Murray and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 118 pages. 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.

This book was released on 1974 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "... This study describes the surface environmental events with substantial accuracy so that a high degree of confidence may be placed in the results. Specifically, the consultant will (a) evaluate all available wind data associated with recorded wave data to correlate wind velocity, duration and fetch with wave height; (b) use the fetch and wind data to make a wave hindcast; (c) compare the hindcast results with the wave-rider data in order to select the best hindcast method; (d) make a search of past severe storm wind reports; (e) prepare a hindcast model for the locations of interest.

Book Synopsis Severe Storms Over the Canadian Western High Arctic by : P. J. Lewis
Download or read book Severe Storms Over the Canadian Western High Arctic written by P. J. Lewis and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One hundred severe storms which occurred over the Western High Arctic region of Canada during the period of 1957-1983 are described herein. The triangular study area includes all water/ice pack, islands west of 90°W and southeast of a line joining the points 80°N, 90°W and 67°N, 150°W. The meteorological parameter emphasized in the selection of these storms was extreme observed wind speed. For each storm, a brief descriptive history is given, including information on areal extent, duration, maximum observed and derived wind speeds, minimum central pressure, and source region, together with a storm track map and a surface pressure chart. Storm categories, based on the storm selection criteria and distinctive storm types, have also been defined. Composite monthly and decadal storm track maps have been prepared, and complete lists of all periods of storm-force winds within the study area from 1946-1983 for ship/drilling site wind reports and 1953/1983 for wind reports from coastal meteorological stations have been included an an appendix. -- abstract, page i.
