Rogue waves in 2006–2010

Natural hazards and earth system sciences (2011)

Irina Nikolkina Ira Didenkulova

Abstract. The evidence of rogue wave existence all over the world during last five years (2006–2010) has been collected based mainly on mass media sources. Only events associated with damage and human loss are included. The waves occurred not only in deep and shallow zones of the World Ocean, but also at the coast, where they were manifested as either sudden flooding of the coast or high splashes over steep banks or sea walls. From the total number of 131 reported events, 78 were identified as evidence of rogue waves (which are expected to be at least twice larger than the significant wave height). The background significant wave height was estimated from the satellite wave data. The rogue waves at the coast, where the significant wave height is unknown or meaningless, were selected based on their unexpectedness and hazardous character. The statistics built on the selected 78 events suggests that extreme waves cause more damage in shallow waters and at the coast than in the deep sea and can be used for hazard assessment of the rogue wave phenomenon.

Detailed analysis of historical data of tsunamis for 1498-2008 period in Guadeloupe (French West Indies, Caribbean sea), collected in different books, papers and sites is presented.Concerning validity scale 10 events are selected as true and almost true, 6 tsunami events were generated by underwater earthquakes; 3 events -by volcano eruptions, and one was a teletsunami.The geographical and temporal distributions of tsunami events are studied.

Tsunami generated by the volcano eruption on July 12-13 at Montserrat, Lesser Antilles

Efim Pelinovsky Narcisse Zahibo P. N. Dunkley Marie Edmonds Richard A. Herd

A major collapse of a lava dome occurred at the Soufriere Hills Volcano (Montserrat, Lesser Antilles), culminating late in the evening (11:35 PM local time) on July 12, 2003 (03:35 GMT on 13 July). This generated a tsunami, which was recorded on Montserrat 2-4 km from the generating area and Guadeloupe, 50 km from Montserrat. Results of field surveys are presented. Tsunami wave height on Montserrat may have been about 4 m according to the location of a strandline of charred trees and other floating objects at Spanish Point on the east coast of the island. The wave height on Guadeloupe according to “direct” witnesses was about 0.5-1 m at Deshaies and near Plage de la Perle. The tsunami at Deshaies caused the scattering of boats as confirmed by fishermen and local authorities. Data from the field survey are in agreement with the predicted tsunami scenario obtained by numerical simulation.

Run-up of large storm waves on Estonian coasts of the Baltic Sea

Artem Rodin Ira Didenkulova Irina Nikolkina

Analysis of maximal inundation of Estonian coasts of the Baltic Sea is conducted on 35-year wind wave simulations with WAM model forced by COSMO winds in the presence of ice. For each of selected along the Estonian Baltic Sea coast 18 beach profiles, the maximal significant wave heights and corresponding periods are found. The locations with available wave data are located at the water depth of about 10 to 20 m and at a distance up to 8 km from the shore. Run-up of these waves on Estonian beaches is calculated within the shallow water theory using the CLAWPACK software package (www.clawpack.org). The topography of the beach is taken from Geological field surveys and combined with GEBCO maps, where needed. We consider the case, when monochromatic waves of corresponding wave height and period are approaching the coast. For this we use boundary conditions of wave-maker located offshore and generating regular waves. Time and space step during all calculations of wave run-up remains constant (1 m and 1 s respectively). The estimates of maximal run-up are compared with the estimations made using different run-up formulas, available in the literature.
