Hurricane Storm Surge Forecasting [PDF]
OCEANS '86, 1986 The National Weather Service (NWS) has developed a hurricane storm surge model called SLOSH (Sea, Lake, and Overland Surges from Hurricanes) to compute hurricane storm surges, given storm data as input. The numerical model incorporates a dynamic coastline, overland flooding, and sub-grid features such as barriers, cuts between barriers, and one ...

Trend of landfalling tropical cyclones in the East China Sea and their storm surge response [PDF]
E3S Web of ConferencesIn recent years, the influence of global tropical cyclones (TCs) has a tendency to expand towards the polar direction, and the proportion of high-intensity TCs has also increased greatly.

Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 1970 From knowledge of wind resistance coefficients measured over the sea, it is possible to compute the shear stress of a wind field on its surface Where a body of water is relatively shallow, such a shear stress will transport water to the downwind end and so create a high water level or surge Graphs are presented for ready application of the relevant ...

Three-Dimensional Storm Surge Computations [PDF]
Geophysical Journal International, 1974 Summary The method for three-dimensional storm surge computation proposed by Heaps is modified by removing the bottom frictional stress from the vertical eigenfunction expansion. The stress is applied externally on each vertical column of fluid. Calculations on a simplified model show that the technique does not alter the response of the sea from ...

Tide and skew surge independence: New insights for flood risk
Geophysical Research Letters, 2016 Storm surges are a significant hazard to coastal communities around the world, putting lives at risk and costing billions of dollars in damage. Understanding how storm surges and high tides interact is crucial for estimating extreme water levels so that ...
