Characteristics and Long-Term Variability of Occurrences of Storm Surges in the Baltic Sea

Atmosphere, 2021
Understanding the characteristics of storm surges is especially important in the context of ongoing climate changes, which often lead to catastrophic events in the coastal zones of seas and oceans. For this reason, this paper presents the characteristics

Improvements to the detection and analysis of external surges in the North Sea [PDF]

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2023
External surges are a key component of extreme water levels in the North Sea. Caused by low-pressure cells over the North Atlantic and amplified at the continental shelf, they can drive water-level changes of more than 1 m at the British, Dutch and ...

Understanding the Effects of Wind Intensity, Forward Speed, and Wave on the Propagation of Hurricane Harvey Surges

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
Hurricane storm surges are influenced by wind intensity, forward speed, width and slope of the ocean bottom, central pressure, angle of approach, shape of coastal lines, local features, and storm size.

Climate-induced storminess forces major increases in future storm surge hazard in the South China Sea region [PDF]

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2023
Coastal floods, driven by extreme sea levels, are one of the most dangerous natural hazards. The people at highest risk are those living in low-lying coastal areas exposed to tropical-cyclone-forced storm surges. Here we apply a novel modelling framework

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

, 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.
