Extreme values for coastal, estuarine, and riverine environments / Agustin Sanchez-Arcilla in Journal of hydraulic research, Vol. 46 extra issue (Mars/Avril 2008) 

Public ISBD [article]  in Journal of hydraulic research > Vol. 46 extra issue (Mars/Avril 2008) . - pp. 183-190 Titre : Extreme values for coastal, estuarine, and riverine environments Titre original : Valeurs extrêmes dans les environments côtières, estuariens et fluviales Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Agustin Sanchez-Arcilla, Auteur ; Daniel Gonzalez-Marco, Auteur ; Neelke Doorn, Auteur Article en page(s) : pp. 183-190 Note générale : Hydraulique Résumé en Français Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Coastal  engineering  Data  analysis  Estuary  Extremes  Probability  Riverine  Statistics Index. décimale : 627 Ingénierie des cours d'eau naturels, des ports, des rades et des cotes. Installations de navigation, de dragage, de récupération et de sauvetage. Barrages et centrales électriques hydrauliques Résumé : The increasing pressures associated to the development of coastal zones and near river courses have enhanced the sensitivity of these areas to natural processes such as flooding or erosion. The characterization of the associated drivers and responses, particularly under extreme conditions, has become an acute need for managing those areas and the risks for uses and resources there located. This paper summarizes the work done within Task 2 of the EU Integrated Research Project FLOODsite in the extreme distribution functions related to flood and erosion hazards. A wide range of models, parameters and fitting techniques were applied to a variety of geographic and climatic environments. The emphasis focused on selecting models and techniques based on a parsimony principle, to propose robust extrapolations of characteristic variables for a reliable flood hazard assessment.

Implications of nearshore processes on the significant wave height probability distribution / Daniel Gonzalez-Marco in Journal of hydraulic research, Vol. 46 extra issue (Mars/Avril 2008) 

Public ISBD [article]  in Journal of hydraulic research > Vol. 46 extra issue (Mars/Avril 2008) . - pp. 303-313 Titre : Implications of nearshore processes on the significant wave height probability distribution Titre original : Les implications des processus côtiers sur la distribution probabiliste des vagues Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Daniel Gonzalez-Marco, Auteur ; Rodolfo Bolanos, Auteur ; Jose Maria Alsina, Auteur Article en page(s) : pp. 303-313 Note générale : Hydraulique Résumé en Français Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Nearshore  processes  Probability  distribution  function  Significant  wave  height  Weibull  distribution  Weibull  parameters Index. décimale : 627 Ingénierie des cours d'eau naturels, des ports, des rades et des cotes. Installations de navigation, de dragage, de récupération et de sauvetage. Barrages et centrales électriques hydrauliques Résumé : This paper analyzes the effect of hydrodynamic processes associated with the beach morphology on the long-term distribution of waves. This is made using the three parameter Weibull Probability Distribution Function for the significant wave height. The analysis shows the evolution of the Weibull position (A), scale (B) and shape (C) parameters at the three main scales of interest for engineering and coastal management applications. These are the plan (offshore) scale, the profile (surf) scale, and the swash (beach face) scale. Implications regarding processes, morphology, and numerical modeling were also analyzed and discussed. This paper illustrates how the probability distribution function of waves in the near shore zone is controlled by hydro-morphodynamic processes. The results lead to different probabilities and therefore risks for erosion or flooding, which have significant implications for coastal management decisions.
