Features of Storm Surge Model Features of Storm Surge Model
• Based on two-dimensional shallow water equations
• Less computer requirement
• Thus, users can specify high horizontal resolution (1-2 minutes lat-lon)
• Suitable for the countries which have complicated coast lines.

Boundary Condition Boundary Condition
Treatment of Astronomical Tide Treatment of Astronomical Tide
• This model does not include astronomical tides, n - o tide generating force or forcing on boundary
• The model can compute only storm surges.• Pick up time series of storm surge from
point which want to predict and a dd astro nomical tides
Wind/pressure field Wind/pressure field
There are two options to estimate the field:
• grid point values of numerical weather prediction models
• a parametric method with some empirical relations
A parametric method is used for TMD ’s operational sto rm surge forecast.
Current NWP models have a tendency to estimate the maximum wind in a TC.
A parametric method makes TC “ensemble” manipulati on easier.
