Özet

A study was conducted to evaluate sea level changes within Izmir Bay, employing the open-source Advanced Circulation (ADCIRC) Model. This investigation delved into variations influenced by factors such as tides, atmospheric pressure, and wind, examining both temporal and spatial dimensions. The methodology encompassed compiling the ADCIRC model’s source code, deploying it on a local computer, and preparing necessary input files. An unstructured model grid was established, tide coefficients for open boundary conditions were determined, and bathymetry data were gathered all executed using open-source tools and models. Utilizing a Python script, atmospheric pressure and wind speed data were extracted from the ERA5 database. The acquired atmospheric data were then cross-referenced with observations from Mentes, Pasaport, and Guzelbahce stations. The cloud-based DesignSafe CI environment facilitated running the model. Ultimately, simulation results across various time intervals and periods were presented using open-source visualization tools.
