Environment simulations cover water quality, currents, waves, coral heat stress, and wind. They help operators assess conditions around the destination and plan the response appropriate to their role.
The scope label currently shows Shura Island as a placeholder; it does not define the scope of the examples below.
Wind
The wind model shows speed and direction across the resort and surrounding water.
Operations Manager
Operations uses the wind simulation to assess when exposed activities or routes may need to be restricted or closed.
The forecast maps wind speed, gusts, and turbulence against the relevant restriction thresholds. Use it to plan the order and timing of holds or closures before the predicted threshold crossing.
Wind, Operations view.
Marine Operations Manager
Use the wind simulation to assess the operating window for diving and vessel departures, along with exposure at moorings. It helps the team plan the day around the small-craft limit and other operating limits.
The forecast models wind speed and direction over the resort and water, including gusts and mooring exposure. Review it when setting departure windows and deciding when to secure moorings.
Wind, Marine Operations view. Marine wind window 14 kn, small-craft limit clear, mooring exposure low.
Water quality
The water-quality model shows how clarity and other readings change under the selected conditions.
Environment Manager
Use the water-quality simulation to examine how lagoon conditions could change under a selected wind, discharge, temperature, and flushing scenario.
The forecast shows dissolved oxygen, nutrients, turbidity, and temperature together. Review where those readings remain stable and where they begin to move out of balance, so the team can investigate a developing problem before visible deterioration.

Marine Operations Manager
Marine Operations uses this simulation to assess water conditions for planned diving and swimming activities. It helps the team review the schedule before guests enter the water.
The forecast models discharge and flushing at dive sites and shows clarity, salinity, temperature, and dissolved oxygen. If visibility is expected to fall below the activity threshold, review the timing or choice of site.
Water quality, Marine Operations view. Dive clarity 7.0m visibility below the activity threshold, DO low, activity limited.
Ocean current
The current model shows how water moves through channels and the basin under the selected conditions.
Environment Manager
Use the current simulation to understand how water moves through the basin and how that movement affects water quality. The relevant factors include residence time, mixing, and sediment transport.
The forecast models tide, wind, and seasonal conditions to show flushing, mixing, and sediment movement. These results help explain water-quality readings, such as a slow-flushing area retaining material that enters it, and support responses aimed at the cause.

Wave
The wave model follows offshore swell towards the shore and along vessel routes.
Environment Manager
The Environment Manager uses the wave simulation to assess where wave energy could contribute to shoreline erosion.
The forecast follows offshore swell towards the shore and shows where energy concentrates and waves break. Use it to identify stretches of coast that need monitoring or protection before the season's conditions develop.

Coral reef
The coral-reef model relates accumulated heat stress to bleaching risk.
Environment Manager
Use the coral-reef simulation to assess how heat stress, water quality, and disturbance could affect the reef over the selected forecast period.
The forecast reports bleaching risk on the degree-heating-weeks scale and shows how stress accumulates. Compare rising risk with the relevant threshold when planning protection or site rotation, before a breach occurs.

Marine Operations Manager
Marine Operations uses this simulation to plan when a dive site should be rested or closed as heat stress increases.
The forecast compares bleaching risk with the closure trigger and includes the additional pressure from anchors and boats. Use it to plan site rotation and protection while risk is still building.
Coral reef, Marine Operations view. Bleaching risk 5.2 DHW approaching the closure trigger, reef health good, anchor risk low.
