This report presents the scope of the U. S. Army Engineer Waterways Experiment Station's (WES) investigation of the proposed Lake Erie International Jetport and summarizes the data obtained from the literature and private individuals. This report is the first of a series published under the general title "Lake Erie International Jetport Model Feasibility Investigation." The objectives of the investigation, Part I, include a review of the literature concerning wave activity (wind waves, seiches, and tides) and mass circulation in Lake Erie, preliminary design of necessary hydraulic models, and preliminary application of analytical and/or numerical models to seiching and mass circulation. In order to accomplish the objectives, the investigation is separated into five tasks : (a.) review of the literature, (b.) seiche analysis, (c.) wave refraction and diffraction analyses, (d.) mass circulation analysis, and (e.) preliminary model design. Existing lake geology, climate, bottom and shoreline characteristics, water balance, water temperature, lake levels, lake currents, wave regime, shore erosion, and water quality data in the central basin of Lake Erie near Cleveland, Ohio, are summarized in Part II. Mass flow direction and current speed distributions from 1964-1965 Federal Water Pollution Control Administration (now part of the Environmental Protection Agency) current observations at stations near Cleveland are presented. Areas of insufficient information found in the literature survey include synoptic and long-term mass circulation data, wind-generated wave hindcast, lake level data, and longshore sediment transport rates.
