1 A field experiment on storm surge and waves attenuation by NNBF in the Chesapeake Bay Challenges and Opportunities Celso M. Ferreira 1, Eléonore Paquier 2, Jana Haddad 3, Seth Lawler 3 and Ali M. Rezaie 3 1 Assistant Professor, Department of Civil, Infrastructure and Environmental Engineering,, George Mason University 2 Post-Doctoral Fellow, Department of Civil, Infrastructure and Environmental Engineering, George Mason University 3 Graduate Student, Department of Civil, Infrastructure and Environmental Engineering, George Mason University
2 Natural and Nature-Based Features
3 Can we get effective protection? Haddad et al. (2015), Natural Hazards
4 Objectives Quantify the potential of natural wetlands to attenuate storm surge in the Chesapeake Bay region Field Work High Performance Computing Resilience considerations Acknowledgements: In collaboration with Dr. Jud Harvey and Dr. Jay Choi Support & advising from Dr. Harry Jenter
5 USGS Storm Tide Program
6 What about NNBFs data?? USGS Storm tide station for Hurricane Sandy 2012
7 Operational Sites: Partners Monie Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve Magothy Bay Natural Area Preserve Dameron Marsh Natural Area Preserve Eastern Shore of VA National Wildlife Refuge
8 Magothy Bay Natural Area Preserve Spartina alterniflora (low form)
9 Eastern Shore of VA National Wildlife Refuge
10 Dameron Marsh Natural Area Preserve
11 Monie Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve Spartina alterniflora
12 Field monitoring: methods Hydrodynamics Water level survey (Pressure, 1meas./6min) Wave survey (Pressure, 4 Hz) Current Survey (Vel. and dir. profiles, 1meas./ 10 min) Hobo U20L-01 - Onset Trublue 255 Meas. Spec. Aquadopp Nortek Vegetation survey Topographical survey Photographic survey Quadrat, caliper, meter tape DGPS Trimble RTK 4.3 Bushnell/Gopro
13 Hydrodynamic monitoring 1. Continuous monitoring framework: 25 Water levels stations 2 ADCPs (Nortek Aquadopp) 2. Rapid deployment for extreme events: Extra 30 water level sensors 10 Wave sensors
14 Preliminary results: Water Levels EVNWR: Tidal Records EVNWR Water Levels DMNAP Water Levels
15 Preliminary results: Velocity profiles
16 Preliminary results: Waves
17 Vegetation Survey Sites based on topography and distance from shore Stem diameter Height Leaf count Density Iva frutescens Spartina patens Ammophila breviligulata Spartina alterniflora
18 Data: Land Cover Data Sets National Wetland Inventory (NWI) Nation Land Cover Dataset (NLCD) Coastal Change Analysis Program (CCAP) Hypothesis: Is the surge response different for the most recent datasets? H 0 : μ cccccccc = μ nnnnnnnn = μ nnn H 1 : AA lllll ooo mmmm ii ddddddddd Reject if: p < 0.05 Mean surge residual metric: µ residual = ζ ζ + ζ ζ + ζ ζ k m k ( ccap) k ( nlcd ) k ( ccap) k ( nwi) k ( nwi) k ( nlcd ) m* k Surge anomaly in meters Station Mean Overall mean + σ 1 - σ 1 g y ( p ) 0 Ferreira et al. (2014), Journal of Geophysical Research Stations
19 Topo-bathymetry 1. Instrument geo-location and vertical datum validation 2. Seasonal Cross section surveys 3. One Full topo/bathy surveys
20 Data: Topo/bathymetric Data Sets Lawler et al. (2015), Submitted to Ocean and Coastal Management
21 First Rapid Deployment Test Hurricane Joaquin pre-deployment, October extra wave sensors 10 extra water level sensors
22 Photography Survey czmks6j1l3rwv7dw
23 Hurricane Joaquin pre-deployment, October 2015
24 The Mason Water Data Information System
25 Summary Goal: NNBF Comprehensive database from high density measurements of: Water levels Current velocities Waves Vegetation characteristics Micro-topography Status: All 4 sites with continuous monitoring for water levels Currents and waves sensors tested and ready for rapid deployment Ongoing vegetation and micro-topography surveys Target deadlines: First online data portal available in Spring 2016 Comprehensive database available in Spring 2017 Looking forward for collaborations to expanding and distributing the datasets
