Abstract. Statistical approaches to study extreme events require, by definition, long time series of data. In many scientific disciplines, these are often subject variations at different temporal scales that affect the frequency and intensity their extremes. Therefore, assumption stationarity is violated alternative methods conventional stationary value analysis (EVA) must be adopted. Using example environmental variables climate change, in this we introduce transformed-stationary (TS)...
Abstract A nonstationary model based on a time‐dependent version of the Generalized Pareto Distribution (GPD)‐Poisson point process has been implemented and applied to extreme wave heights in Mediterranean basin. Thirty‐two years hindcast data have provided by forecast/hindcast numerical chain operational at University Genoa ( www.dicca.unige.it/meteocean ). The behavior height maxima prompted modeling GEV parameters with harmonic functions. Harmonics introduced seasonal cycles within year,...
Abstract. Statistical approaches to study extreme events require by definition long time series of data. The climate is subject natural and anthropogenic variations at different temporal scales, leaving their footprint on the frequency intensity climatic hydrological extremes, therefore assumption stationarity violated alternative methods conventional stationary Extreme Value Analysis (EVA) need be adopted. In this we introduce Transformed-Stationary (TS) methodology for non-stationary EVA....
In this work performances of two different wave spectral models (Wavewatch III and SWAN) are presented. Results compared with those provided by a validated meteocean modelling chain. Potentialities deficiencies either the evaluated in relation to their numerical accuracy ability represent coastal processes. Both applied area belonging Northern Tyrrhenian Sea on finite-elements computational mesh. As expected provide comparable results. Being conceived for nearshore SWAN provides more...
A 32-years wave re-analysis has been employed in order to develop an extreme value analysis for the whole Ligurian Sea (North Tyrrhenian Sea). Wave hindcast data have obtained through numerical modelling implemented at DICCA, University of Genoa, covering Mediterranean Sea. Model outputs characteristics (wave height, period and direction propagation) extracted on 30 virtual buoys displaced area temporal domain (32-years) hourly frequency exhaustive climate analysis. non stationary model is...
This study investigates the dispersion of atmospheric pollutants over a coastal region north-western Italy by means modelling techniques. A series annual air quality model simulations corresponding to different emission reduction scenarios has been performed with three-dimensional chemical transport chain running at 3 km resolution. The were used develop bottom-up (locally produced) source-receptor relationships perform local source allocation analysis main in few polluted cities within...
Abstract In this work we review the impact of potential tsunamigenic events on Suez Canal by means numerical hydrodynamic simulations. To do selected three possible seismic sources affecting area study and able to trigger tsunami, two which located in eastern Mediterranean region one Gulf Aqaba. The reviewed characterized provide input analysis are Lebanon Thrust Fault, fault segments Cyprus Arc Evrona Elat faults (Dead Sea Fault system). Tsunami event due impacts Nile Delta propagates into...
Recent advances in direct monitoring of submarine canyons activity suggest that metocean events can prime or ultimately trigger turbidity currents at sub-annual to centennial frequencies, challenging the paradigm such highly destructive flows typically result from infrequent landslides. Here we present a methodology aimed link information on nearshore circulation and sediment resuspension as floods, tides storms downslope evolution flows, applied cyclone-triggered affecting deep-sea gas...
