TY - JOUR PY - 1995// TI - Storm surges in the northern part of the Sea of Japan JO - Natural hazards A1 - Lyubitsky, Yuri V. SP - 99 EP - 110 VL - 11 IS - 2 N2 - All the available historic records of sea level and appropriate weather charts have been used to study storm surges in the northern part of the Sea of Japan. The generation of surges in this area was investigated by means of a two-dimensional numerical model. Computed sea levels were compared with hourly observed residual sea levels in De-Kastri. The agreement between computed and observed storm surges is quite satisfactory. The relative importance of various meteorological parameters and bottom topography in formation of the strong storm surge on 20-21 September 1975 was studied numerically.
