Abstract

Since both observations and theory indicate weak dissipation, a frictionless one‐dimensional model elucidates the dynamics of the surge and is used to hindcast and forecast. Wind over the shallow northern Adriatic dominates the forcing. The relative phases of the astronomical tide, the storm tide, and the preexisting seiche determines flooding. Good real time predictions are now in progress.

The focus of this paper is a systematic determination of the relationship between grid resolution and errors associated with computations of hurricane storm surge. A grid structure is sought that provides the spatial resolution necessary to capture pertinent storm surge physics and does not overdisc
