Stormsurge PaperStormsurge Paper

20 March 2020

Together with former members of NumGeo group N. Beisiegel and S. Vater and with F. Dias of University College Dublin, J. Behrens published a new paper on adaptive modeling of storm surges in Ocean Modeling (see DOI:10.1007/s10236-020-01352-w). In this article we demonstrate the efficient simulation of storm induced inundation events by discontinuous Galerkin numerical discretization and adaptive mesh refinement.

PhD Defense L. Marien

On July 3., 2020, NumGeo member Lennart Marien defended his PhD thesis. In his work he showed that solution artifacts close to steep topography/orography may be caused by imbalanced numerical methods. He also developed possible cures - so-called well-balanced schemes - for the problem in his thesis...
