Wave Simulation by the SWAN Model and FVCOM Considering the Sea-Water Level around the Zhoushan Islands

Abstract: In this study, the numerical wave model Simulating Waves Nearshore (SWAN), which resolves nearshore wave processes, and a hydrodynamic model, the Finite-Volume Community Ocean Model (FVCOM), were coupled to simulate waves and currents during Typhoon Fung-wong (2014) and Typhoon Chan-hom (2015) around the Zhoushan Islands. Both of these models employ the same unique unstructured grid. In particular, the influence of sea-surface currents, e.g., typhoon-induced and tidal currents, as well as the sea-water level, … Show more

“…The geophysical data record (GDR) wave data, from the Jason-2 altimeter proceeded to Level-2 (L-2) swath product, are available for 2009-2016. The wave product derived from Jason-2 altimeter data has been used for validating the model simulations, as conducted in our previous studies [23,45]. The accuracy of the sea surface height measured by the Jason-2 altimeter is currently within 3.4 cm.…”

“…The complete description of these terms is provided in the technical manual of the SWAN and WW3 models [47]. The default settings of the SWAN model include [23]: WESTHuysen (non-linear saturation-based white-capping combined with wind) for the propagation scheme and switches QUADrupl, TRIad, and BREakinge for bottom friction. The unstructured grid of the simulated area for the SWAN model is shown in Figure 4.…”

“…The main difference between the WW3 and SWAN models is the applicability of the model: SWAN was originally developed as a nearshore model, while WW3 was developed for the oceanic scales. Therefore, the WW3 model is usually employed for wave simulations over large regions, such as global seas [17] or the western Pacific Ocean [18], while the SWAN model is typical used to analyze coastal waters [19]. Model-simulated waves are also commonly used in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) wave monitoring [20,21] and, in particular, as auxiliary data for typhoon analysis [22].…”

“…To improve and enhance our simulating and analytic capabilities and understanding of storm tides, surges, and waves, this Special Issue is intended to collect the latest studies or reviews on storm tides, surges, and waves modeling and analysis utilizing dynamic and statistical models and artificial intelligence approaches. Seven high-quality papers have been published in this Special Issue which cover the application and development of many high-end techniques for storm tides, surges, and waves: for instance, employment of an artificial neural network for predicting coastal freak waves [1]; reproduction of super typhoon-created extreme waves [2]; numerical analysis of nonlinear interactions for storm waves, tides, and currents [3]; wave simulation for an island using a circulationwave coupled model [4]; analysis of typhoon-induced waves along typhoon tracks in the western North Pacific Ocean [5]; understanding of how a storm surge prevents or severely restricts aeolian supply [6]; and investigation of coastal settlements and assessment of their vulnerability [7].…”
