1 NORTH ATLANTIC COAST COMPREHENSIVE STUDY (NACCS) STORM MODELING AND STATISTICAL ANALYSIS FOR COMPUTING COASTAL HAZARDS Mary Cialone Coastal & Hydraulics Laboratory Engineer Research & Development Center US Army Corps of Engineers Lessons Learned and Best Practices: Resilience of Coastal Infrastructure College of Engineers and Surveyors; Hato Rey, Puerto Rico 8-9 March 2017 The views, opinions and findings contained in this report are those of the authors(s) and should not be construed as an official Department of the Army position, policy or decision, unless so designated by other official documentation.
2 After Hurricane Sandy Address flood hazard of vulnerable coastal populations Develop a risk-reduction framework consistent with U.S. Government (USACE/NOAA) Rebuilding Principles
3 NACCS Goals Develop a method to quantify resilience of coastal _communities Promote coastal resilient communities with sustainable _and robust coastal landscape systems, considering future sea level rise and climate change scenarios, to reduce risk to vulnerable population, property, ecosystems, and infrastructure
4 NACCS Numerical Modeling & Statistical Analysis Goal Provide modeling results and compute statistics of coastal storm forcing parameters for the entire North Atlantic Coast

6 Storm Selection Historical Storms applied to extratropical events 23 NOAA water level gauges 30-yr record or more Peak-over-threshold 100 storms selected Composite Storm Set method (define/identify) (Nadal-Caraballo & Melby 2014) Synthetic Storms applied to tropical events Radius to maximum winds Central pressure Forward speed Track Landfall location 1050 storms Observation Screening Process
7 NACCS Storm Suite Historical Extratropical Storms 1050 Synthetic Tropical Storms 1150 Total Storm Population Model Simulations: 1150 Storms x 3 conditions: Surge and wave only (base) Surge and wave and tide Surge and wave and tide and sea level change Total Storms simulated: 3450
8 HPC Resources: 3450 Simulations Department of Defense Supercomputing Resource Centers (DSRCs) 8 USACE Air Force Navy Garnet: Cray XE compute nodes 32 cores/node processors Spirit: SGI Ice X 4590 compute nodes 16 cores/node processors Armstrong: Cray XC compute nodes 24 cores/node processors 100M CPU hours Largest CW project 40% Garnet and 60% Armstrong 8-month time frame
9 CSTORM Production System CHALLENGE: ORGANIZE MANY STORMS, RESOURCES, COMPUTATIONAL NODES, GRIDS 9 The CSTORM Production System (CSTORM-PS) makes use of standard Linux/Unix tools (scripting) and open source software (Python) The production system allows for Rapid preparation of necessary input files for individual CSTORM-MS production runs (Reduces chances for human error) Execution of the simulation Execution of the CSTORM Visualization and Report tool Efficient file storage and archival The production system is general enough for use in future projects Setup Simulation Prep ADCIRC for Parallel Execute CSTORM Visualize & Stats Compress Outputs Tar Results Together Archive Results
