NANOOS Radar Data Helps USACE Improve Nearshore Storm Modeling
OSU-NANOOS data are supporting the US Army Corps of Engineers’ development of a high resolution nearshore storm modeling system for the West Coast. Data from the OSU X-band radar station on the USCG Yaquina Bay watchtower provides wave predictions and bottom bathymetry data useful to the model development. Additionally, OSU deployed four Sofar Spotter wave buoys with bottom-mounted pressure sensors last fall, ~1 km offshore Nye Beach in Newport, OR, within the operational radar footprint. The wave buoy data will be used as a ground-truth check on the radar-derived data products and also directly to support and evaluate the storm modeling system.
