Cyclonic Storms and Odisha Coast
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2007The state of Orissa on the east coast of India is called the disaster gateway as it is one of the most vulnerable states in the country with a very high probability of cyclonic hits. The present research analysed that the countryhas had a series of studies on the mathematical modelling of the cyclonic surges or social analysis of the human apathy ...

Storm Surges from Extra-Tropical Cyclones
Natural Hazards, 2004The possible influence of climate change on the tracks of the extra-tropical cyclones as well as storm surges is studied. Two differentdata bases have been used: one for the Great Lakes of North America and the otherfor the German Bight in the North Sea of Europe.

Cyclone Gonu storm surge in Oman
Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science, 2010Super Cyclone Gonu is the strongest tropical cyclone on record in the Arabian Sea. Gonu caused coastal damage due to storm surge and storm wave impact as well as wadi flooding. High water marks, overland flow depths, and inundation distances were measured in the coastal flood zones along the Gulf of Oman from 1 to 4 August 2007.

FPSO Transient Responses During Cyclonic Storms
Volume 1: Offshore Technology; Special Symposium on Ocean Measurements and Their Influence on Design, 2007This paper presents the key results and conclusions of the study of FPSO transient responses in the cyclonic storm. The measured wind, wave and current data of recent cyclonic events are utilized to simulate the FPSO responses in terms of mooring loads, vessel yaw motion and relative FPSO heading to waves as it weathervanes in the wind, waves and ...

Storm cyclones in the North Atlantic
Russian Meteorology and Hydrology, 2014Considered are long-term features and characteristics of storm activity variability in the North Atlantic based on the method of automatic identification of cyclone centers using the data on sea level pressure as well as the estimates of the maximum speed of the surface wind in the area of cyclones.

US tropical cyclone flood risk: Storm surge versus freshwater
Risk Analysis, 2022AbstractDespite persistent record‐breaking flood losses from tropical cyclones (TCs), the United States continues to be inadequately prepared for TC flood events, with the deficiency in residential flood insurance being a prime representation of this.

Physically based storm transposition of four Atlantic tropical cyclones
Science of The Total Environment, 2019In this article, a method for the storm transposition of tropical cyclones is presented. This method is physically based as it uses a regional atmospheric model to reconstruct the precipitation depth field from a tropical cyclone, thus crucially conserving the mass, momentum and energy in the system. In this physically based storm transposition method,
