  2. RENCI Objective • Extend/augment an existing modeling system into the Chesapeake Bay/Region III geographic area: • Model grids, DEM • Incorporate STWAVE nearshore wave model into computational system • Post-simulation statistical analysis (development of flood-frequency curves from simulations + JPM storm weights) • Coordinate our work with the USACE and partners for data preparation and output data management, grid generation, storm and wind characterization, and wave model integration. • I.e. : Communicate as much of our experience in the North Carolina Floodplain Mapping Project (NCFMP) as possible.

  3. RENCI/IMS Personnel Involved • RENCI • Dr. Brian Blanton : Coastal Oceanographer, Computational Scientist • Margaret Blanchard : GIS/DEM • Ken Galluppi : Management • Howard Lander : Research Programmer • Lisa Stilwell : web design/support • UNC Institute of Marine Sciences • Dr. Rick Luettich : Coastal Oceanographer, ADCIRC Developer • Crystal Fulcher : SMS/ADCIRC grid development

  4. Three primary RENCI Phase 1 Tasks • Task 1 – Assembly of Digital Elevation Model (RENCI/Blanchard) • Existing topo/bathy data into regional, consistent DEM • NCFMP has identified potential issues regarding data quality, bathymetric data, etc. • Task 2 – Grid Development and Modeling Consultation (UNC/IMS-Luettich) • Task 3 – Extend Computational System (RENCI/Blanton)

  5. Computational System Overview • Use NCFMP model system as starting point • “Flexible” use of different ADCIRC grids • Has been ported to different computer systems (IBM BG/L, Dell Clusters) • Incorporate project ADCIRC grids • Incorporate OWI TC96 and STWAVE as modules • Develop flexibility of model choices through well-defined interfaces • Execute validation simulations • Execute probabilistic tropical and extratropical storms

  6. Physical System • Computation of StillWater ELevation and wave SETUP component to total water level due to probabilistic Tropical and ExtraTropical systems. STWAVE ADCIRC

  7. Computational System WaveWatch III for oceanic wave field Wind/Pressure Simulator OWI TC96 and IOKA Wave Force Water level STWAVE for nearshore wave field and radiation stress ADCIRC for SWEL+Setup

  8. Numerical Model Suite • Oceanic waves NOAA WaveWatch3 • Storm Surge ADCIRC • Wave setup STWAVE • Wind/Pressure OWI’s TC96 (tropical) • OWI’s IOKA (extratropical) • Augmentation of existing system with STWAVE and TC96. • Existing system already uses OWI format (NWS12/212) so incorporating TC96 easy. • Wrap STWAVE to “look like” SWAN.

  9. Current Work Items • Compile/test OWI TC96 (done) • Compile parallel STWAVE (done) • Test parallel STWAVE • in progress, with Jane Smith (ERDC) and Harry Friebel (NAP) • 100-500 individual simulations • Order 256 processors per simulation • 2-5 million cpu-hours • Compute Resources TBA Anticipated Computational Effort

  10. STWAVE Scaling • Test problem • 100x100, Gulf of Mexico • 48 hour simulation • 30 minute timestep • 96 time evaluations • Intel Xeon 2.6Gz cluster • About Linear speedup • Don’t have consistent comparison with SWAN yet • Expecting STWAVE to be faster, mostly due to globalization of output. (Handled similar to ADCIRC’s globalization) STWAVE Scaling

  11. NOAA Ches/Del Bay ADCIRC grid • Probably good grid-dev starting point for bathy • Does not support inundation • Bathymetry to be converted to MSL by NOAA • Then to NAVD88 by RENCI for incorporation into DEM database.
