WAVE RUN-UP CAUSED BY NATURAL STORM SURGE WAVES

Downscaling Effects on Modelling Waves, Tides and Storm Surge

This paper presents the results of downscaling effects when modelling waves, tides and storm surge using a nested modelling system. In this study, the coupled POLCOMS/ProWAM models are used, with 3 nested computational domains, the largest of which covers part of north-eastern Atlantic Ocean with a coarse resolution grid and the smallest covers the surrounding waters of south-west Cornish coast...

Retinal Waves Stirring Up a Storm

exploratory bouts in a novel environment? The only way to find out will be to record chronically across multiple units and cortical layers during the actual behavior and plasticity process. Finally, how such a shift in excitatory–inhibitory balance might be achieved is of interest. The brevity of the exploratory behavior required for bidirectional map changes is suggestive. Remarkably, just 4 m...

Run-up amplification of transient long waves

The extreme characteristics of the run-up of transient long waves are studied in this paper. First we give a brief overview of the existing theory which is mainly based on the hodograph transformation [9]. Then, using numerical simulations, we build on the work of Stefanakis et al. (2011) [37] for an infinite sloping beach and we find that resonant run-up amplification of monochromatic waves is...

Storm surge scenarios for Hamburg

Abstract A scenario for future storm surge heights for the tide gauge of Hamburg St. Pauli is constructed on the basis of results from a regional model for Cuxhaven. Under the A2 emission scenario, an increase of the mean annual maximum water level of about 0.1724 m appears possible and plausible for the time horizon of 2030. In Cuxhaven, an increase of 0.14 may be expected in this scenario. In...
