摘要

通过对飓风华金相关的风、波和洋流进行综合分析，调查了El Faro号货船的沉没。利用最先进的再分析技术，从高分辨率和长期气候角度对该事件进行了评估。艾尔法罗号最后的已知位置是飓风华金的西北眼壁，当时它是四级主要飓风。该地区最大浪高在10 m以上，Benjamin-Feir指数为0.69，表明极有可能发生异常浪。当这艘船试图逃离飓风时，它不断受到左舷强风和海浪的影响。这与洪水相结合，导致右舷倾斜，最终可能导致船只沉没。

Extreme environmental forcing on the container ship SS El Faro

ABSTRACT The sinking of the cargo ship SS El Faro is investigated by providing a comprehensive analysis of the wind, wave and ocean currents associated with Hurricane Joaquin. Using state-of-the-art reanalyses the event is assessed in high resolution and from a long-term climate perspective. The last known location of the SS El Faro was in the north-west eye-wall of Hurricane Joaquin when it was a category four major Hurricane. The maximum individual wave height in this region was over 10 m and the Benjamin-Feir index was 0.69 indicating a high likelihood of rogue waves. As the vessel tried to outrun the hurricane it was continually impacted by strong wind and waves on its port side. This was compounded with flooding that caused a starboard list which likely eventually caused the vessel to sink.

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
