3 Motivation and background Short- term Effects Astronimical Tide Seiches (resonance) deterministic + Corilios force Inverse barometric effect + Wind setup Static storm surge Corilios force Wave setup External surge Meteorological Stochastic) + Corilios force + Corilios force River discharge Tide s, Storm Surge, Wave setup, External factors ) = Extreme water level modified after Oumeraci, 2009 Sea level rise Effect of Morphology and structures Long- term Effects modeling for extreme storm surges Page 3 Nonlinear interaction and until now not completely solved

4 Objectives Developing an operational model which combines ANN and numerical modelling. Determination of the worst extreme water level, which is physically possible in the 21st century at a given site. Building ANNs model to relate and predict extreme water levels at a given site (e.g. Sylt) using data from a neighbouring site (e.g. Cuxhaven). Filling water levels data gaps for given sites. Grossmann I., K. Woth and H. Von Storch Die Küste 2005 modeling for extreme storm surges Page 4

5 Methodology meteorology forces from present day re-analysis and hindcast A Hydrodynamical model (Telemac 2D) covering the North Sea area Storm surge forecasted at Cuxhaven and Sylt meteorology forces from climate change part Climatic change part GCM using A2 and A1B scenarios from IPCC(2007) Different RCM for North Sea (see Woth k., R. Weisse and H. Von Storch GKSS 2005/1) Astronomical tidal constituents NARX neural network model account for nonlinear interaction of all water levels constituents Total water level at Cuxhaven and Sylt External surge at Aberdeen and Elbe river discharge ANNs models Water levels at Cuxhaven and Sylt using hydrodynamic model every 6 hours ANNs model predicting hourly values of Meteorological forces for Cuxhaven and Sylt ANNs model for hourly water level for Cuxhaven and Sylt Water levels at Cuxhaven and Sylt modeling for extreme storm surges Page 5

9 Summary Combining ANNs with numerical modelling allows to: account for nonlinear interaction of water levels constituents. reduce the training data for ANNs and provide water levels predictions every hour instead of every 6 hours by RCM meteorological forces. provide a powerful and computationally efficient modelling techniques. Applications as an operational model for: filling the gaps in long-term data series by using sequential time series predictions at given site. water levels retrieval at given remote site (e.g. Sylt) based on a long-term data recorded at neighboring sites (e.g. Cuxhaven). modeling for extreme storm surges Page 9
