Improved observing and modeling systems for understanding of tropical cyclones and winter storms and their impacts in mixing

Session ID#: 255169

Session Description:
Storms can dramatically modify hydrography and circulation, potentially shifting the trajectory of seasonal conditions and/or contributing to subsequent compound events. Thus, the impacts of storm events can be direct (e.g., storm surge) or indirect (i.e., changes to background conditions). Furthermore, feedbacks between the coastal ocean and storm systems can lead significant changes in storm characteristics. Tropical cyclones fueled by warm water can rapidly intensify even on a continental shelf.  Storm conditions present practical challenges to ocean observing and modeling which limit our understanding of their compound effect on coastal and estuarine systems. This session also seeks to enhance our understanding of mixing and physical transport processes in estuaries and the coastal ocean during the extreme events. Therefore, reliable observation systems need to be developed in conjunction with advanced warning modeling systems.

 

This session serves as a forum to share knowledge of storm systems in coastal environments. Research topics include but not limited to: coastal ocean observing and numerical modeling systems, feedbacks and impacts of storms on coastal systems, and evaluation of their ecological dynamics.
