Storm Surges Versus Shore Erosion: 21 Years (2000–2020) of Observations on the Świna Gate Sandbar (Southern Baltic Coast)

open access: yesQuaestiones Geographicae, 2022
Based on observations spanning 21 years (2000–2020), the article studies the effects of storm surges on the shore of the Świna Gate Sandbar in the southern part of the Pomeranian Bay (southern Baltic Sea). Impacts of selected maximum storm surges in each

Characterizing cold surge induced storm surge in the northern East China Sea: A 60-year hindcast reveals paradoxical trends in surge heights and return levels

open access: yesWeather and Climate Extremes
Recurrent cold surges represent a major hazardous weather phenomenon in the northern East China Sea. While their synoptic-scale meteorological processes are well-established, their impacts on oceanic dynamics, particularly storm surge behavior, remains ...

Storm surge contributions to flood hazards on Canada's Atlantic Coast

open access: yesJournal of Flood Risk Management, 2022
A numerical hydrodynamic model was used to simulate the generation and evolution of storm surges in Atlantic Canada in response to synoptic‐scale surface wind and atmospheric pressure fields. The modelling was conducted as part of a broader initiative to
