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.

Groundwater Flooding on Atolls Caused by Storm Surges: Effects of the Dual‐Aquifer Configuration

, 2023
Storm surges associated with tropical cyclones endanger atolls through groundwater flooding, where groundwater is discharged from the land surface as the sea level rises.

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

A century of sea level data and the UK's 2013/14 storm surges: an assessment of extremes and clustering using the Newlyn tide gauge record [PDF]

, 2014
For the UK's longest and most complete sea level record (Newlyn), we assess extreme high waters and their temporal clustering; prompted by the 2013/2014 winter of storms and flooding. These are set into context against this almost 100-year record.

Data-Driven Modeling of Global Storm Surges [PDF]

, 2020
In many areas, storm surges caused by tropical or extratropical cyclones are the main contributors to critical extreme sea level events. Storm surges can be simulated using numerical models that are based on the underlying physical processes, or by using

Impact of barrages on extreme water levels in the Bristol Channel

, 2021
The Bristol Channel/Severn Estuary has some of the largest tides in the world with a mean spring tidal range of 12.2 m. On rare occasions, a significant storm surge will coincide with a spring tide and this has potential for very major coastal flooding ...
