Beschreibung

Storm Surges offers a comprehensive exploration of a growing threat to coastal communities worldwide. It examines the science behind these events, differentiating them from regular tides and tsunamis, and explores the meteorological and oceanographic factors contributing to their formation, such as wind patterns and coastal geomorphology. The book highlights the increasing impact of rising sea levels and intense storms and argues that scientific understanding combined with advanced forecasting and coastal management can significantly reduce destruction. For example, the book presents case studies ranging from the devastation of Hurricane Katrina to cyclones in the Bay of Bengal. 

 
The book progresses through three key sections: formation, multifaceted impacts, and prediction and management strategies. It analyzes how factors such as wind speed and coastline shape contribute to surge height and explores coastal environments, economies, and societies. Prediction and management strategies encompass advanced numerical models, early warning systems, and coastal engineering solutions. Ultimately, it emphasizes interdisciplinary collaboration and adaptive strategies in the face of climate change.
