Storm surges in the Beaufort and Chukchi Seas
Abstract
Specific problems of storm surge modeling in the polar seas are analyzed. The vertically integrated equations of motion and continuity are applied to the prediction of the storm surge wave in both the ice‐free and ice‐covered seas. The interactions of atmosphere, ice, and water are expressed by the normal and tangential stresses. A numerical grid is set over the Chukchi and Beaufort seas, and three storm surges are simulated and briefly described. Patterns of motion and sea surface geometry are related to low and high atmospheric pressure systems. Comparison of the measured and computed sea level and observed and computed ice edge proves that the model is suitable to reproduce both water and ice motion.

The two storm events documented by Kowalik (1984) could potentially account for the dramatic coastal retreat between 1979 and late 1981.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
