Warning water level determination and its spatial distribution in coastal areas of China [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2023 The warning water level is the default water level at which storm surges may occur along a coast and indicates a stage of alert. This level forms the basis for storm-surge forecasting, and prewarning is an important reference for governments and aids in ...
