Physically-based Assessment of Hurricane Surge Threat under Climate Change [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Storm surges are responsible for much of the damage and loss of life associated with landfalling hurricanes. Understanding how global warming will affect hurricane surges thus holds great interest.

Examination of Computational Performance and Potential Applications of a Global Numerical Weather Prediction Model MPAS Using KISTI Supercomputer NURION

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
To predict extreme weather events, we conducted high-resolution global atmosphere modeling and simulation using high-performance computing. Using a new-generation global weather/climate prediction model called MPAS (Model for Prediction Across Scales ...

Effect of Varying Wind Intensity, Forward Speed, and Surface Pressure on Storm Surges of Hurricane Rita

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
Hurricane storm surges are influenced by several factors, including wind intensity, surface pressure, forward speed, size, angle of approach, ocean bottom depth and slope, shape and geographical features of the coastline.

Effects of wave-current interaction on storm surge in the Taiwan Strait: Insights from Typhoon Morakot [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The effects of wave-current interaction on storm surge are investigated by a two-dimensional wave-current coupling model through simulations of Typhoon Morakot in the Taiwan Strait. The results show that wind wave and slope of sea floor govern wave setup

Hurricane risk analysis: A review on the physically-based approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This paper reviews recent studies that take a physically-based approach to better assess and manage hurricane risk. Such a methodology includes three components: modeling the storm climatology (which defines TC risk in terms of the upper tail of the ...

Heightened hurricane surge risk in northwest Florida revealed from climatological-hydrodynamic modeling and paleorecord reconstruction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Historical tropical cyclone (TC) and storm surge records are often too limited to quantify the risk to local populations. Paleohurricane sediment records uncover long-term TC activity, but interpreting these records can be difficult and can introduce ...

Effects of tide-surge interaction and wave set-up/set-down on surge: case studies of tropical cyclones landing China's Zhe-Min coast

open access: yesTheoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters, 2018
: Storm surge along the China's Zhe-Min coast is addressed using the tightly coupled surge model of ADCIRC+SWAN. In this study, we primarily focus on the effects of surge-tide interaction and wave set-up/set-down.
