26th December 2004 Tsunami: Do we know what we would like to know?

by Flemming Jakobsen Greve, DHI Malaysia

It all started far from land in the deep ocean far below the sea bed from an earthquake with a magnitude of 9.0 to 9.3 - the largest event after the 1964 Alaskan earthquake which had a magnitude of 9.2. The earthquake generated a tsunami, which, during the following hours, reached the coastlines of the Indian Ocean. We have all seen the destruction and chaos it created in the extensive media coverage; the number of casualties, destroyed houses and roads, etc., but apart from the extent of the destruction caused by the tsunami we still have much to learn. Detailed analyses by scientist and engineers of the indirect measurements have just started, and only indirect measurements such as seismic, geodetic, satellite altimeter and tide data are available. Some of the results were presented at the Asia Oceania Geosciences Society conference http://www.asiaoceania.org in June 2005. Present knowledge can be summarized briefly as follows:

The earthquake's epicentre was located at 3.3° N and 95.9° E off the west coast of Northern Sumatra (about 220 km SSE off Great Nicobar Island). The focus was located 30 km below the ocean floor at the interface of the India and Burma plates, where the India plate subducts the Burma plate along the Sunda Trench. More than 250 aftershocks in the magnitude range of 5-7.3 followed the earthquake. The aftershock zone extended from west of Sumatra through the Nicobar Islands all the way to the Andaman Islands. The total length of the zone was over 1,200 km. The average dislocation around the epicentre in the southern end of the zone is estimated to be approximately 16 m. The maximum amount of slip (~30 m) is identified in the region closest to the northern most Peninsula of Sumatra Island where huge tsunami run-up heights were observed. The seismic wave analyses indicate that the southern half ruptured rather rapidly while the northern half ruptured slowly. The analysis of satellite altimetry measurements of the sea surface height disturbance suggests that the rupture propagated at an extremely slow speed of 0.7 km/sec, even in the early stage, to the north along the northern Sunda Trench. The development of the rupture, or the source duration, was approximately 30 minutes. Movements of a few tens of meters of the seabed along the subduction zone created the pressure wave in the water column, which generated the great tsunami. The collision forced up large thrust ridges, almost 1.5 km high. These unstable blocks collapsed in places, producing large landslides several kilometres wide. Reverse calculations from tide gauges indicate that the tsunami source was approximately 700 km long, but the northern end was not well constrained. However, the northern most part of the zone seems to have caused the tsunami observed along some Indian coastal stretches. Different fault models have been proposed on the basis of different data: they all share the idea that the rupture propagated north-westward from the epicentre and that the ruptured area was at least 500 km long.

The impression from the conference was that the details of the simulated tsunami can still be improved, partly by improving the tsunami source distribution and development and partly by improving the applied bathymetries. Work to resolve these issues will continue.



Current forecasts for the Singapore and Malacca straits ^

Current forecasts for the Singapore and Malacca straits

Efficient and reliable voyage planning requires information about which conditions can be expected on route. To enhance voyage planning the company Info@sea has launched a web based marine information hub called STRAITSFORECAST (www.sea.com.sg). STRAITSFORECAST will in the future provide high resolution current forecasts for the Singapore and Malacca straits to the marine shipping community. With STRAISFORECAST Ship Masters, Pilots and Terminal Operators will have access to detailed and accurate forecasts of current conditions in areas covered by the system.

Singapore, one of the largest ports in the world in terms of ship movement, has been selected as Pilot Test area for the system. STRAITSFORECAST is presently entering user trials with a major cruise shipping line including the integration of the forecast to existing onboard engine management software. The system runs on DHI's Water Forecast technology for current forecast and links to an internet based front end supporting digital navigation charts and GIS functionality to maximize the functionality of the system for the marine community.

Within Singapore waters the system includes data for the determination of approach and departure berthing windows and provides pilots with clear data on the currents affecting a vessel in a display interface tailored for maritime use. Model validation is provided by real time data link to MPAs current sensors in the main Singapore Straits.

Info@SEA is a joint venture between DHI Water and Environment (S) Pte Ltd, Maritime and Port Authority Singapore and BMT Asia Pacific Pte Ltd

New Opportunities in Integrated Hydrological Modelling - MIKE SHE Developments ^

New Opportunities in Integrated Hydrological Modelling - MIKE SHE Developments

This recent PhD project has added a number of interesting new dimensions to integrated hydrological modelling with MIKE SHE. Firstly a new evapotranspiration module has been developed for MIKE SHE based on the state-of-the-art Shuttleworth-Wallace approach and successfully tested against field data. Investigations of methodologies for using satellite remote sensing for evapotranspiration modelling have been carried out, that have motivated the development of improved facilities for using satellite data in MIKE SHE. Finally MIKE SHE has been coupled with a regional scale meteorological model to investigate atmospheric feedbacks between the land surface and the atmosphere that are important in predicting the effects of land use and climate change.

The project was carried out by Jesper Overgaard at the Environment & Resources Department, Technical University of Denmark (DTU), with Professor, dr. techn. Dan Rosbjerg and Senior Hydrologist, PhD Michael Butts, DHI, as supervisors.

20th European Conference for ESRI Users, Warsaw, Poland 26-28 October 2005 ^

This conference will be the largest GIS event in Europe this year and is a great opportunity to visit the beautiful city of Warsaw. The conference will cover a wide range of topics including:

  • Environment Track
  • Defence & Homeland Security
  • Utilities & Telecommunications
  • Education
  • Transport & Logistics
  • Government & Physical Planning
  • Survey, Cartography and Cadastre

Furthermore there will be a separate DHI Software track addressing how modelling meets GIS in Decision Support Technology for water and environmental aspects. The following topics will be covered:

GIS + Modelling = Decision Support Systems for the Water Framework Directive

The power of the combination of GIS and simulation modelling will be illustrated through examples from a number of European countries including Greece, Ireland, the Czech Republic, Lithuania and Denmark

OpenMI – towards open water and environmental models

An open standard has been developed for linking numerical models (and other IT systems). The standard enables the end-user to combine tools from several developers into more comprehensive DSS tools for water management

Technology Presentation: Temporal Analyst for ArcGIS
GIS and Time – the technology challenge is being met!

The representation, management and analysis of time varying data in GIS has always been a problem. However, now this challenge is being addressed and generalized ArcGIS based tools for the temporal dimension are becoming available. The new tools are applicable in a wide range of domains from environment over utilities to traffic and financial services

Using models to make decisions

How models influenced the decisions and helped save lives in Prague during the 2002 floods

Decision Support Systems for Flood Management

Flood management is often about making holistic decisions under critical conditions and based on a vast amount of different types of data. Decision support systems therefore play a key role in effective and reliable flood management. Flood forecasting technology has taken great strides forward in recent years. This has been possible through the extensive use of GIS and supporting remote sensing technologies. Not least the important dissemination of forecast results can now be made effectively through the use of valuable new technology

Technology Presentation: MIKE URBAN
GIS and Modelling for Urban Water and Wastewater Systems

With the release of MIKE URBAN, hydraulic modelling and GIS is finally fully integrated. MIKE URBAN combines GIS technology from ESRI with numerical modelling components from DHI into a truly geospatially enabled modelling package for water and wastewater networks. In addition, MIKE URBAN can also be used for simulations of urban floods – an issue that is an increasing concern in many cities

Important dates to note are:

"Early Bird" Registration: before August 1, 2005
Posters submission deadline: September 30, 2005
Registration for paper presenters: before October 1, 2005

Product News ^

Product News

Some of the new features in this years release are mentioned briefly below.



Marine Software ^

Marine 2005 release

10 new appetizers are available at http://www.dhisoftware.com/mike21/News/. This 3rd presentation shows examples of improvements and new features in the coming release of the Marine Software.



Urban Software ^

MIKE URBAN has hit the world...

MIKE URBAN has been demonstrated at several workshops and seminars and used for several training courses around the world - almost 400 users has had hands-on training at these sessions which covers countries like China, Malaysia, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, USA and several European countries.

All around the world MIKE URBAN has been very well received. As expected we have seen some minor child-deceases that will always be in a complete new user interface of this magnitude, but the message we get from everywhere is that MIKE URBAN is full of very strong features already now and that the potential of adding even more power in the coming months and years are very promising – the new platform is open and ready for integration with data from all around the world.

In other words the full integration of ESRI’s world leading GIS-functionality and DHI’s unique and well-proved hydraulic engines is what many organizations have been waiting for and now its ready for use...!



MIKE URBAN 2005 ^

MIKE URBAN 2005

Scenario Manager
...known from MOUSE and MIKE NET

The MIKE URBAN Scenario Manager allows you to work with an unlimited number of scenarios inside the same MIKE URBAN project. Each scenario repressent a unique model setup, but only differences from the base scenario is saved and the scenario manager is therefor an extremely effective way to store numerous alternative scenarios in the project - allowing you to correct parameters in all scenarios at same time if needed.

The scenario manager enables you to organise, manage and report scenarios, such as:

  • Augmentation of existing trunk sewer mains.
  • Increased waste water loading from increased population.
  • Increased water demands from increased population.
  • Alternative design loads, e.g. rainfal-runoff of different return perios.
  • Alternative allignment of sewer and storm mains.
  • Building of new sewer trunk and water supply mains in order to cater for a new development area.
  • Etc...

Catchment tools

The catchment toolbox is a collection of tools that makes delineation of catchments for storm water networks extremely easy and fast.

The toolbox include 3 main tools for creation of catchments to your storm water model:

The catchment delineation wizard helps you delineate catchment polygons by in an automated and reproducable way. In version 2005 the catchments can be automatically created as thiessen polygons and shortly after that we will add other principles like f.ex. Generation of polygons based on a DEM.

The catchment connection tool automatically connect all selected catchments to the nearest manholes which in most situations will be what you want. For those places where you want the catchments to be connected differently the connections can easely be moved by use of the graphical editing tools.

The catchment parameter processing tool is an automated and reproducable way to calculate imperviousness for your hydrological models - traditionally a very time consuming task with big risk of making errors and inconsitencies. In version 2005 the imperviousness can be calculated for MOUSE rainfall-runoff model A and SWMM rainfall-runoff and shortly after we will expand this to the other rainfall-runoff models where it could be relevant.



MikeView 2005 ^

MikeView 2005

  • Read and present results from dfs2-files, which mean that you can now view results from MOUSE together with 2D results from MIKE21 – used for URBAN Flooding where MIKE21 acts as a 2D surface model on top of the network model of the storm water system
     
  • Avi-files can be recorded showing animations etc
  • LTS results now also includes presentation of AD components, i.e. statistics on water quality parameters


Water Resources Software ^
MIKE 11 ^

MIKE 11

A number of new features have been added to the HD module (regardless of max number of grid points).

  • 2D output mapping.

    2D mapping of MIKE 11 simulation previously required the MIKE 11 GIS module (ArcView 3.x extension) as well as a DEM. Some of that functionality is now available within MIKE 11 HD and even with the option of generating the 2D map without a DEM. In that case cross section data is automatically interpolated between cross sections in order to interpolate a 2D map of river bed used for calculation of e.g. the water depth 2D map. If a DEM is available this can be specified as additional input for the map interpolation, and the DEM will be used between cross sections.

    The main difference between this mapping feature and MIKE 11 GIS is that the latter is capable of extrapolating a water depth outside cross sections. This feature will only generate maps between cross sections.

    Maps can either contain a single time step with the maximum or minimum values that occurred during the simulation, or several time steps thus showing the dynamics of for instance a flooding event.

    The user can choose between the following item types: water level, water depth, velocity, velocity*depth, concentration and DEM. The latter can be used to merge a cross section data set with a DEM which typically has a poor representation of the river bed between cross sections.

    Click here http://www.dhisoftware.com/presentations/ to see and hear a presentation of the new features.

  • Time series output.

    Generating time series files with simulation results is often required when making automatic or manual calibration, making production runs or for instance transferring results to other applications.

    Previously, generating time series files has been possible as a post-processing task using MIKE View or res11read. Time series files can now be generated directly during the simulation. Time series data can be saved in .dfs0 files and in two different ASCII file formats. The user can choose between a range of different items (water level, discharge, velocity, area etc) as well as control if time series output is generated through out the model area or only in selected grid points.

  • Manning numbers in cross section editor.

    The choices for working with resistance numbers in MIKE 11 have been extended and the Manning/Chezy number can now be specified in the cross section editor. On each raw data set the user can specify the Manning number as fully distributed (as the relative resistance previously), uniform or in three flow zones (high flow left, low flow and high flow right). This new option is more intuitive as the Manning numbers can now be specified together with the cross section data where they apply.

    Click here http://www.dhisoftware.com/presentations/ to see and hear a presentation of the new features.

  • Animation files from MIKE View.

    Several features for animating results have always been available in MIKE View, but the animations could only be shown within MIKE View. In order to produce an .avi file of a particular animation a screen capture software had to be used. With version 2005 this is no longer required as MIKE View can generate .avi files directly. Animation files covering a single window or the full application can be generated.

    Click here http://www.dhisoftware.com/presentations/ to see and hear a presentation of the new features.

  • Side structures.

    Modelling a side weir (or other structure diverting flow from the river) previously required a dummy branch with an upstream and downstream cross section to be defined. With version 2005 range of the well known MIKE 11 structures types (weirs, culverts, pumps, control structures, dam break and tabulated structures) can optionally act as a side weir. Internally MIKE 11 will automatically add the dummy branch and cross section as well as a dummy down stream water level boundary. Optionally instead of loosing the flow from the river, the water diverted can be kept in a storage for which the user specifies the capacity. When water level difference between the storage and the river allows the stored water will return to the river.

  • Structure Plotting

    From the tabular view of the network editor a graphical presentation of hydraulic structures and their neighbouring cross sections can be shown. This makes documentation of how structures are modelled easier and it helps the user ensuring that structure dimensions and elevations are specified correctly. A typical source of model instability is a structure which is too large or too lower compared to the neighbouring cross sections. The structure plotting feature works for structures for which the specifications include dimensions and elevations. This includes all weirs, all culverts, some bridges and all control structures except discharge controls.

For further information please contact Mr. Morten Rungoe mor@dhi.dk



MIKE FLOOD ^

MIKE FLOOD

New features include:

  • Automated lateral linkage

    The lateral linkage tool has been extended to also include a left and a right levee option. Based on the cross sections in the system the tool can now trace the 2D cells intersected by the left and the right levee lines and populate the corresponding table within the graphical interface.

  • Topographical information on the fly

    With release 2005 the cell height in the MIKE 21 bathymetry may now be verified by simply pointing to the cell. The topographical information along with the (j,k) coordinates is then displayed in the lower information bar in MIKE Zero.

  • Blocking out cells in the MIKE 21 topography

    To avoid double counting of mass within the main river a cell blockage tool has been added. This tool is designed to identify the cells lying within the channel bathymetry and subsequently change the level of the selected in channel cells to land values.

  • Topography along lateral links

    To improve the users experience with MIKE Flood a feature has been added to the engine which exports the topography of every lateral link to an ASCII file which may be imported into the cross section editor for further analysis.

For further information please contact Dr. Johan N. Hartnack jnh@dhi.dk



MIKE 21 C ^

MIKE 21 C

  • Grid quality measures in grid generator.

    The curvilinear grid generator has been extended with new a feature helping the user checking the quality of the generated grid. Examples include checking the orthogonality and the spatial spacing gradients of the generated grid. Both are important issues for the accuracy and stability of the solution to the flow and sediment transport equations.

  • New sediment transport equations

    By extending the list of sediment transport equations offered in MIKE 21 C the possible range of applications has been broadened. Three new sediment transport equations have been added:

    • Empirical relations (Smart and Jaeggi model and user defined)
    • Yang’s model for sand transport
    • Yang’s model for gravel transport

  • Implicit AD solver.

    Solving the AD equations is now possible using an implicit finite difference scheme in addition to the existing explicit scheme. Using the implicit scheme typically allows for using significantly higher time steps in the computations.



MIKE FLOOD WATCH ^

MIKE FLOOD WATCH

The new 2005 version, which has been incorporated fully into ESRI ArcGIS 9.0, provides a range of new and enhanced features, including:

  • Event and alarm framework

    A general event and alarm framework that can be used to detect and respond to user defined alarms such as data thresholds, model thresholds, task outcome and simulation outcome. In response to a raised alarm, the system can run user defined tasks, e.g. email notification, data publication and simulation tasks.In addition to handling single events, the alarm framework can respond to a set of events, all of which must be raised for an alarm to be triggered.

  • Mapping input data and simulation results

    Spatial maps produced by a model, e.g. flood inundation maps, vector maps etc., can be visualised in a GIS environment to facilitate rapid decision making and result dissemination. The new system also supports spatial interpolation of e.g. point based rainfall time series and presentation of an interpolated raster in the GIS environment.

  • Documentation

    Improved and expanded system documentation with step-by-step guidance.



MIKE SHE ^

MIKE SHE

New features include:

The MIKE SHE 2005 Release contains both the MIKE SHE Water Movement module, as well as the MIKE SHE AD and PT transport models. Input files and results for the transport modules may be edited and viewed by existing MIKE Zero editors and viewers, but cannot be edited directly in the MIKE SHE Setup Editor. We recommend that all MIKE SHE 2004 users upgrades to the new version.

The MIKE SHE engine has been upgraded to be OpenMI compliant. This is a significant milestone, in the sense that users will now be able to run MIKE SHE from other OpenMI compliant applications. For more information on the OpenMI project, please see the HarmonIT website at www.harmonit.org.

Flux and gradient boundary conditions are now available in as outer boundary conditions in the saturated zone model.

A new option has been added to the ET module to allow transpiration to continue when the ground surface is flooded.

The MOUSE - MIKE SHE exchange through pipes now accounts for the vertical hydraulic conductivity in cases where the pipes are well below the groundwater table.

An option to allow negative precipitation has been added, which makes it easier to specify net recharge to the groundwater that is derived from third-party programs, such as DAISY GIS.

An option has been added to allow distributed snow melt constants.

For further information please contact Mr. Douglas Graham dng@dhi.dk



Modelling tips and hints ^
MIKE 11: Cross Section Editor ^

MIKE 11: Cross Section Editor

In the cross section editor you can mark a cross section as selected by double clicking on the chainage in the tree view. Several cross sections can be selected by right-mouse clicking while pointing at the river name or topo-ID in the tree view. Once a number of cross sections are selected you can easily perform certain actions on selected cross sections only. This includes multiple cross section plotting, deleting, renaming and changing settings such as radius type, datum, resistance type, level selection method for processed data and number of levels in processed data.



FloodWatch: Publication Editor ^

FloodWatch: Publication Editor

In order to easily publish results from simulation run, FW provides Publication Editor. The editor has its own language for retrieving various aspects of a simulation run, e.g. time series data for a specific sensor, simulation times, etc. The language is similar to html. Every keyword starts with FW, e.g. <FWSimulationDef>. The editor supports IntelliSense, which means that after typing "<", the editor will pop-up a list of all FW keywords. Every keyword must be enclosed in "<" and ">". Pressing space, while within the keyword pops up a list of possible attributes for the keyword. Double-clicking on a keyword will pop up the keyword´s GUI editor.



MIKE View / MIKE Flood: Cut down on the run time in a MIKE flood run ^

MIKE View / MIKE Flood: Cut down on the run time in a MIKE flood run

If your MIKE Flood set up only contains lateral links then you can cut down on the run time by doing the following:

  • Run MIKE 11 as a stand alone
  • Open the result file in MIKE View
  • Use the 'tools -> compute -> flood' option to enable the calculation of the water height with respect to min levee height.
  • From the flood item in MIKE View determine when the 2D flood component will become active (positive values of flood).
  • Now run the coupled model with the hot start option in MIKE 11 using the start time found in 4.


MIKE Zero Grid Editor: Create static or dynamic impact/difference maps ^

MIKE Zero Grid Editor: Create static or dynamic impact/difference maps

You can easily create difference maps (e.g. impact maps) using the MIKE Zero Grid Editor. First load your reference dfs2 or dfs3 file into the GridEditor. Then use the "Tools" pull-down menu and use "copy file into data". Under operations choose "-" and then save the results in a new dfs2/dfs3 file. This operation can be done both for static data (single time-step) or for grid time-series (simulation results). Thus, you may generate "dynamic impact maps" which you can then animate using the Results Viewer or the Plot composer. The above only works for identical grids (geometry) and for dynamic maps the two dfs2/dfs3 files must contain the same number of time-steps.



MIKE SHE: Using interpolated grids from Surfer ^

MIKE SHE: Using interpolated grids from Surfer

Surfer is often used to interpolate scattered data. To use the Surfer output in MIKE SHE, save the .GRD file to a XYZ data file, using the Save As... function in Surfer's Grid Node Editor. Then load the XYZ data file in the MIKE SHE setup editor.



MIKE FLOOD: Layers / background images ^

MIKE FLOOD: Layers / background images
