Tidal flood is one of the most persistent disaster in Indonesia. It often occurs during high tide, which can be exacerbated by extreme tidal surges, land subsidence, and sea level rise. The coastal area Pekalongan, especially Panjang Wetan, impacted areas May 2022. Data from Indonesia Geospatial Agency showed that maximum spring tides elevation reached + 0.4 to +0.5 m above mean level. Currentl...

To avoid property loss and reduce risk caused by typhoon surges, accurate prediction of surge deviation is an important task. Many conventional numerical methods and experimental methods for typhoon surge forecasting have been investigated, but it is still a complex ocean engineering problem. In this paper, support vector regression (SVR), an emerging artificial intelligence tool in forecasting...

1 by laser reflectors left there by astronauts. What does this motion have to do with the ocean circulation? By Kepler's laws, the recession implies that there is a continuing loss of energy in the Earth–Moon system of 3 ǂ10 12 watts, or 3 terawatts, mostly in the ocean. But where in the ocean does this energy go, and what are its effects? On page 775 of this issue, Egbert and Ray 2 produce evi...

This study looks for evidence of a correlation between long-term changes in the lunar tidal forces and the interannual to decadal variability of the peak latitude anomaly of the summer (DJF) subtropical high pressure ridge over Eastern Australia (LSA) between 1860 and 2010. A simple "resonance" model is proposed that assumes that if lunar tides play a role in influencing LSA, it is most likely ...

We contribute to the growing literature on the behavior of capital flow surges and their relationships with sudden stops and capital flow reversals. We suggest a definition of true sudden stops based on gross foreign flows that is a subset of net capital flow reversals. We find that a majority of surges end in reversals of some type and this percentage is only slightly over half for surges in n...

Stormwater management ponds (SMPs) protect coastal communities from flooding caused by heavy rainfall and runoff. If the SMPs are submerged under seawater during a tropical cyclone (TC) its storm surge, their function will be compromised. Under climate change scenarios, this threat is exacerbated sea level rise (SLR) more extreme cyclones. This study quantifies impact of cyclones surge inundati...

Storm surges create coastal flooding that can be damaging to life and property. In estuaries with significant river influence (fluvial), it is possible for tides, storm surge, discharge interact enhance relative the immediate coast. These tide-surge-river interactions were previously identified in a fluvial Maine estuary as higher frequency (>four cycles per day) oscillations surge which pro...
