Most of the northern coast of Cuba is subject to wave damage and coastal flooding High waves combine with storm surge In Cuba Hurricans oPen happen! The well reknown «Malecon» protects most of the the Avana. And it is a tourist aWrac8on itself A new wave protec8on system has to be built to reduce the vulnerability of the city Also taking into account the Global Climate Change that might increase frequency and intensity of h. urricanes and tropical storms Different solu8ons for its protec8on are being considered Overtopping depends on wave height as well as on sea level Official design data from Cuba Oceanographers and Meteorologists “Carácterís8cas hidrometeorológicas generales de la zona costera correspondiente al Malecón Habanero”, Ida Mitrani INSMET (1994). “wave set up” is caused by radia8on stress gradients, i.e. mostly by wave breaking This is part of the physical and mathema8cal simula8ons as the storm approaches the coast and depths decline, the surge increases ( Offshore) surge created by the hurricane wind field ac8ng on the water and by the storm’s pressure deficit Figure from B. Jacobsen 2003 The rise and fall of surge is fastest with the landfall of the dome peak, typically just to the right of the hurricane center. At this loca8on the SWL is capable of rising several feet per hour. To the leP of landfalling dome the offshore winds can produce a SWL setdown below LMMSL (nega8ve η). ( B. Jacobsen 2003) Figure from B. Jacobsen 2003 Typical Southern US measures ( B. Jacobsen 2003) Landfall effects on Southern US are different: 1)  Lower intensity 2)  Shallow slopes, larger land flooding Only local source of data: Cuba Na=onal Tide Gauge Network sta=ons: Marcelino Hernández González Extreme non-­‐regular sea level varia=ons in Cuba under the influence of intense tropical cyclones.
