Third International Workshop on Waves, Storm Surges, and Coastal Hazards, Incorporating the Seventeenth (17th) International Waves Workshop; Notre Dame, Indiana; October 1-6, 2023

波浪、风暴潮和沿海灾害国际讲习班是一系列关于海洋和沿海海浪、水位和海流各个方面的国际讲习班。相互关联的应用范围从海上能源基础设施（波浪和海流对近海石油/天然气结构和风力涡轮机的作用力）、导航（波浪和水流与开放水域中的船舶相互作用，通过入口进入港口），沿海洪泛区淹没（由于飓风风暴潮、海啸和沿海河流洪水），海岸形态学（影响航道深度和河口/河流与海洋交换的沉积物输运）、沿海生态系统，包括对水质的影响，动物群和植物群（例如社区供水、工业污染、水温和盐度、藻类大量繁殖、鱼类幼虫交换、水中的可用氧气）。随着世界人口继续增长并向沿海地区迁移，以及全球和区域海洋和大气气候发生变化，了解基本物理学并通过模型进行预测变得越来越重要。这些不断增加的沿海人口正在通过砍伐森林、土地开发、疏浚、堤坝建设和集约化水产养殖来急剧改变沿海海洋和洪泛区，从根本上改变了风浪、潮汐、风暴潮和对特定事件的水文反应。此外，人类活动引起的全球大气和海洋气候变化正在推动更强大和更大的风暴，这些风暴往往移动得更慢，产生更强的降雨率和更大的降雨总量。研讨会的主题包括现场观察，实验室研究，改善物理过程描述的理论基础，从计算算法到代码架构的模型实现，数据同化，人工智能，过程交互（波浪/风暴潮、冰/波浪、冰/风暴潮、水文/潮汐/涌浪）、验证/确认/不确定度量化，以及短期和长期预报和统计灾害分析中的业务应用。波浪竞技场的具体主题包括在复杂条件和环境中波浪预测的改进方法，海洋波浪气候和波浪测量，用户要求，最佳实践和评估，以改善波浪生成的物理学，极端海洋，复杂几何形状的波浪生成，近海岸应用，以及独特的波浪，如流氓波，孤立子和亚重力波。浪涌和沿海灾害竞技场的主题包括开发工具，通过预测与影响沿海地区社区的波浪、海流、浪涌和其他过程相关的风暴和风暴影响，量化未来沿海和近海风险和复原力。从多个来源预测沿海洪水特别令人感兴趣。风暴潮主题包括业务预报;全球和区域后报;风暴潮气候学;数据收集和仪器;数据同化到数值模式;波流相互作用;潮冰相互作用;复合洪水;浅水和近岸效应;用于波后报或预报的风场：极值分析;该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

The International Workshop on Waves, Storm Surges and Coastal Hazards is a continuing series of international workshops on all aspects of ocean and coastal ocean waves, water levels and currents. Interrelated applications span from offshore energy infrastructure (wave and current forces against offshore oil/gas structures and wind turbines), navigation (waves and currents interacting with ships in open water, through inlets and into harbors), coastal floodplain inundation (due to hurricane storm surge, tsunamis and coastal riverine flooding), coastal morphology (sediment transport impacting the depth of navigation channels and estuarine/river to ocean exchanges), to coastal ecosystems including impacts on water quality, fauna and flora (e.g. community water supplies, industrial pollution, water temperature and salinity, algal blooms, fish larval exchanges, available oxygen in the water). Understanding the underlying physics and enabling prediction through models is becoming increasingly important as world populations continue to grow and migrate to coastal areas and as global and regional ocean and atmospheric climatology change. These increasing coastal populations are drastically modifying the coastal ocean and floodplain through deforestation, land development, dredging, levee construction, and intensive aquaculture, fundamentally changing the wind wave, tide, storm surge and hydrologic response to a specific event. In addition, anthropogenic induced global atmospheric and oceanic climatology change is driving more powerful and larger storms that are trending to move more slowly and producing more intense rainfall rates and larger total rainfall volumes. The workshop’s topics include field observations, laboratory studies, theoretical foundations to improve physical process descriptions, model implementation from computational algorithms to code architecture, data assimilation, artificial intelligence, process interaction (wave/storm surge, ice/wave, ice/storm surge, hydrology/tide/surge), verification/validation/uncertainty quantification, and operational applications in short- and long-term forecasting and statistical hazard analysis. Specific topics in the wave arena include improved methods for wave prediction in complex conditions and environments, ocean wave climate and wave measurements, user requirements, best practices and evaluation to improve the physics of wave generation, extreme seas, wave generation in complex geometries, near-coast applications, and unique waves such as rogue waves, solitons, and infragravity waves. Topics for the surge and coastal hazards arena include developing tools for quantifying future coastal and offshore risks and resiliency by predicting storms and storm effects associated with waves, currents, surges and other processes that affect communities in coastal areas. Coastal inundation forecasting from multiple sources is of particular interest. Storm surge topics include operational forecasting; global and regional hindcasts; storm surge climatology; data collection and instrumentation; data assimilation into numerical models; wave-current interaction; surge-ice interaction; compound flooding; shallow water and nearshore effects; wind fields for wave hindcasting or forecasting: extremal analysis; case studies, past and future climate trends and variability.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
