Geophysical Journal International, 1983 Summary. An earlier review of storm surges, covering the forty years up to 1967, is updated. Again the emphasis is on storm surges around the British Isles but, as before, references are also made to surges which occur in other areas. It is shown that the main advance in the work, during the period considered, has been the widespread development and

Explanations for the positive storm surges on the left side of landfall typhoons in China
Frontiers in Marine ScienceThe coastal regions of Southeast China frequently experience unusual positive storm surges on the left side of landfalling typhoons, a phenomenon historically overlooked and inadequately explained by conventional circular wind field models. In this study,
