3. SELECTED ABSTRACTS
Using MIKE 21 for the Estimation of Japan Typhoon Risk
Juergen Grieser (RMS)
Japan is very well defended against storm surges. Sea defences are up to 18m high. Risk Management Solutions (RMS) esti-
mates the risk of storm surges for Japan in a hybrid approach. MIKE21FM and MIKE21SW are driven with a stochastic set of
typhoon tracks. Based on the EurOtop Manual open-ocean wave characteristics are converted into wave characteristics directly
at the defences. Defence overtopping rates and/or breaching is described by parameterizations. Various inundation scenarios
are estimated using graphical processing units (GPUs) which run considerably faster than CPUs.
Water Level and Tidal Current Calibrations of the Ramsey Bay Model
Yiping Chen (Hyder Consulting)
The presentation will cover the construction of the MIKE21 FMHD Irish Sea model, which provides coastal boundary conditions
to drive the Ramsey Bay, Isle of Man, local model. In particular, the presentation will focus on water level calibrations using the
available tide gauge data and tidal current calibrations using continuous ADCP measured data at 2 locations for 30 days. The
calibrated model was then used for sea outfall dispersion modelling study to assess the potential impact of the new Ramsey
coastal outfall and CSOs and to predict the compliance to the new EU Bathing Water Quality Objectives.
Real Time Flood Forecasting in the Environment Agency
Clifford Williams (Modelling and Forecasting, Environment Agency)
In the context of the recent winter floods and storm surges, the presentation will focus upon flood forecasting systems used by
the Environment Agency, how the Environment Agency interfaces with the Met Office, the hydraulic models used by the Environ-
ment Agency (incl. MIKE 11) and how the service is delivered (e.g. to Flood Resilience Teams).
Supporting Red Sea Hydrographic Survey Services: Water Level Modelling
Ambre Trehin & Zhong Peng, (Fugro Geos)
Fugro GEOS Ltd was commissioned to produce an operational water level model of the Red Sea using MIKE21 HD FM in order
to support a bathymetry survey that will be undertaken along the Saudi Arabian coasts over 2014/2015. The hydrodynamic com-
plexity of the Red Sea (presence of an amphidrome, large surge variations), as well as the client specifications regarding the
allowed error, make this project very challenging.
Developing Useful Estuarine Sediment Transport Models: Improving Model Outputs by Improving Model Inputs
Kevin Black (Partrac)
The utility of any model is a direct function of the quality of the inputs provided to the model. Almost everything related to confi-
dence in the model thus depends on the quality and range of data used to calibrate and validate the model. This presentation
seeks to summarise the mainstream, and less well known, marine tools and instruments that can provide nearly all of the re-
quired inputs for modern sediment transport models. It will provide a framework for collection of data and outline some of the
practicalities of collecting this data.
Ngqura Harbour Wave Modelling
Shirin Costa (Mott MacDonald)
MIKE 21 BW modelling was undertaken to compare and contrast the potential changes to the wave climate within the port of
Ngqura, South Africa. The modelling formed the basis of a comparative study, primarily considering the effect of different port
layouts.
