Effect of waves, tides and storm parameters on water level rise through numerical simulation

Abstract

In this study, the foot water is calculated by the factors of collecting parameters and tides, calculated waves are analyzed by the tidal integrated numerical model, Toring sea and storm surge (SuWAT - Surge, Wave and Tide). The SuWAT model has been applied to calculate storm surge in a number of storms that have made landfall on the northern coast (such as storms Franki-96, Washi-05, Xangxane-06, Kalmeagy-14) with some calculation options different. The results show that the influence of the tide on the rising water level is negligible in places with low tidal amplitude and with storm landing at high tide, the water will be lower than when the storm makes landfall at low tide; The water surge due to atmospheric pressure is only significant in the offshore area when the storm intensity is still strong. Meanwhile, in the area, shoreline rise due to wind stress and wave stress accounted for the majority of the total water level rise during storms. With storm parameters, the storm surge at Hon Dau station reached the maximum value with the case where the storm's movement speed was 1 hour slower than the actual one. The magnitude of the water decreased as the pressure in the storm increased, but the magnitude increased at three different stations. Water level rise at 3 stations Cua Ong, Hon Dau, and Hon Ngu increased with wind speed, however, Hon Ngu station had a higher rate of increase. The magnitude at Cua Ong station increases slowly. The water surge at Cua Ong station is dominated by wind speed more than at Hon Ngu station. The research results will be very useful in warning and forecasting storm surge in the area.
