A Comparison of Methods Used to Calculate Extreme Water Levels
A long-term water elevation record spanning 95 years at Atlantic City, New Jersey has been systematically analyzed to determine the appropriate method to calculate the stage-frequency of extreme water elevations. The annual maximum surge is found to be uncorrelated with the annual maximum water elevation, indicating that a joint probability stochastic analysis is necessary for the determination of extreme water elevations. A statistically significant increase in the recorded annual maximum surge over the past half-century (1960–2006) is evident in the data, reflecting the possible influence of global climate change on the frequency and magnitude of extreme water levels generated by coastal storms.
