Storm Surges in Tauranga Harbour [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Understanding the potential elevation of extreme sea-levels at the coast is important for management of hazards, and adaptation to climate change. This poses challenges for coastlines around the globe, with current pressure from sea-level rise and ...

Storm Surge Effects at Leixões

open access: yesCoastal Engineering 1974, 1974
In this paper, the effects of a storm surge that happened on the 16th-17th January 1973 in the harbour of Leixoes are analysed and described. These effects were of two types: - As the storm surge coincided with a spring tide and rough seas, severe damages occurred in the outer breakwater, mainly in its head.

Impact Assessment of Climate Change on Storm Surge and Sea Level Rise Around Viti Levu, Fiji

open access: yesFrontiers in Climate, 2020
Projecting the sea level rise (SLR), storm surges, and related inundation in the Pacific Islands due to climate change is important for assessing the impact of climate change on coastal regions as well as the adaptation of the coastal regions.

Evolution of tidal flat in response to storm surges:a case study from the central Jiangsu Coast

open access: yesShui kexue jinzhan, 2019
The response of tidal flats to storm surges is an important scientific problem in the evolution of tidal flats under climate change. To investigate the evolution of silt-muddy tidal flats in response to storm surges along the Jiangsu coast,the measured ...

European Challenges to Coastal Management from Storm Surges

open access: yes, 2019
A number of studies have investigated the impacts of storm surges at the local or regional scale, with a recent study by Vousdoukas et al. giving projections for Europe for 2010-2040 and 2070-2100.

Using Satellite Altimetry to Calibrate the Simulation of Typhoon Seth Storm Surge off Southeast China

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2018
Satellite altimeters can capture storm surges generated by typhoons and tropical storms, if the satellite flies over at the right time. In this study, we show TOPEX/Poseidon altimeter-observed storm surge features off Southeast China on 10 October 1994 ...

An operational prediction system for storm surges in the Korean Coasts

open access: yes, 2007
Recent studies report that the intensity of tropical cyclones will increase due to the global warming which also will raise the mean sea level. Consequently, the more coastal disasters by tropical cyclones will be inevitable without proper countermoves ...
