1 Comparison of directional wave spectrum hindcast to the buoy data measured near the typhoon path TAERIM KIM and JAEHYUK LEE Department of Ocean Science and Engineering Kunsan National University, Republic of Korea 1 st International Workshop on Waves, Storm Surges and Coastal Hazard Liverpool, UK, 1-15, September 217

2 Contents Background Wind data and wave model Wave directional spectrum analysis Comparison of model results Summary and next steps

3 Background(1) 1. Typhoon Bolaven(1215)(TYB_category 3) generated record breaking waves and damaged several ports severely. The central pressure and maximum wind velocity reached up to 91h and 51.8 m/s, respectively. It is the most powerful typhoon which passed the Yellow Sea with casualties of 15 and property damages of over 7 million dollars.

10 Background(2) 1. Typhoon Bolaven(1215)(TYB_category 3) generated record breaking waves and damaged several ports severely. The central pressure and maximum wind velocity reached up to 91h and 51.8 m/s, respectively. It is the most powerful typhoon which passed the Yellow Sea with casualties of 15 and property damages of over 7 million dollars. 2. TYB generated extreme waves (Hmax=2.7m) and also high waves for long duration. The reason of this extreme case is considered by dynamic fetch effect but needs to be analyzed with more data.

TYB generated extreme waves (Hmax=2.7m) and also high waves for long duration. The reason of this extreme case is considered by dynamic fetch effect but needs to be analyzed with more data. 3. Typhoon wind and wave fields are very complicate and good example to check the model performance. The numerical wave prediction model needs to be tested with more wave data, specially in terms of directional spectrum.

28 Summary and Next Steps(1) 1. Up to now, directional wave spectrum data observed at two buoys near the TYB path clearly do not show the dynamic fetch effects. Need more analysis using normalization in terms of TYB speed, Cg, Rmax, relative location from the TYB center and wave growth

29 needed for comparison to buoy data. Summary and Next Steps(2) 2. Comparison of WW3 and observed data shows reasonably good agreement in time series of Hs. Underestimation of Hs near the TYB path seems to be originated from underestimation of UM wind. 3. The calculated directional spectrum is similar to buoy data near the TYB center but shows differences at far point from the center 4. Same analysis of model results using normalization is
