In this study, we have estimated the storm surge heights using numerical modeling on coastal area, and then evaluated the vulnerability index by applying the vulnerability assessment techniques. Surge modelling for 27 typhoons affected from 2000 to 2014 were simulated by applying the ADCIRC model. The results of validation and verification was in significant agreement as compared with observations for the top 6 ranking typhoons affected. As results, the storm surge heights in Jinhae Bay, Sacheon Bay, Gwangyang Bay, Cheonsu Bay and Gyeonggi Bay were higher than other inner coastal areas, then storm surge vulnerability assessment was performed using a standardization, normalization and gradation of storm surge heights. According to results of storm surge vulnerability assessment, index of Jinhae Bay, Sacheon Bay, Gwangyang Bay etc. are estimated to be vulnerable(4~5) because of the characteristics of storm surge such as inner bay are vulnerable compared with exposed to the open sea areas. However, index in the inner bay of western Jeonnam are not vulnerable(1~3) relatively. It may not appear the typhoons affected significantly for the past 15 years. So, the long-term vulnerability assessment with the sensitivity of geomorphology are necessary to reduce the uncertainty.

In this study we established an operational storm-surge system for the northwestern pacific ocean, based on the NEMO (Nucleus for European Modeling of the Ocean). The system consists of the tide and the surge models. For more accurate storm surge prediction, it can be completed not only by applying more precise depth data, but also by optimal parameterization at the boundaries of the atmosphere and ocean. To this end, we conducted several sensitivity experiments related to the application of available bathymetry data, ocean bottom friction coefficient, and wind stress and air pressure on the ocean surface during August~September 2018 and the case of typhoon SOULIK. The results of comparison and verification are presented here, and they are compared with POM (Princeton Ocean Model) based Regional Tide Surge forecasting Model (RTSM). The results showed that the RTSM_NEMO model had a 29% and 20% decrease in Bias and RMSE respectively compared to the RTSM_POM model, and that the RTSM_NEMO model had a lower overall error than the RTSM_POM model for the case of typhoon SOULIK.

A numerical simulations were performed to investigate the storm surge during the passage of Typhoon Maemi on the coast of Busan. The typhoon landed on the southern coasts of Korean Peninsula at 21:00, September 12, 2003 with a central pressure of 950 hPa, and the typhoon resulted on the worst coastal disaster on the coast of Busan in the last decades. Observed storm surges at Busan, Yeosu, Tongyoung, Masan, Jeju and Seogwipo harbors during the passage of the typhoon were compared with the computed data. The simulated storm surge time series were in good agreement with the observations. The simulated peak storm surges were estimated to be 230 cm at Masan harbor, 200 cm at Yeosu harbor and Tongyoung harbor, and 75 cm at Busan harbor. The computed storm surges along the east coast of Busan measure 52 to 55 cm, exhibiting a gradual reduction in surge height as one moves further from the coast of Busan. Therefore, coastal inundation due to the storm surge in the semi-enclosed bay can induce great disasters, and the simulated results can be used as the important data to reduce the impact of a typhoon-induced coastal disaster in the future.

본 연구에서는 2003년 태풍 'MAEMI'에 의해 피해를 가장 많이 입은 경남 마산시를 중심으로 폭풍해일 범람도를 작성하였다. 해양과 하천 하류부가 만나는 마산시에서는 해일, 조석, 하천을 동시에 고려해야 하므로 이에 대한 단계적 적용을 통해 범람 중첩효과를 검토하였다. 본 연구에 사용된 수치모델은 네덜란드 Deltares사에서 개발한 준3차원 해수유동 모델 Delft3D이다. Delft3D는 폭풍해일 이외 지진해일, 부유물 이송, 오염물 확산 등 다양한 분야에 적용 가능하며, 파랑, 조석력, 바람에 의한 전단력, 온도, 염도에 의한 밀도류, 대기압 변화, 조간대 모의 등 다양한 영향을 고려할 수 있다. 수치모의시 모델의 안정성과 효율성을 높이기 위해 다중격자기법을 사용(최소 25m 격자)하였으며, 수심 자료는 국토지리정보원 수치지도와 국립해양조사원 수치해도의 수평 수직적 통합을 통해 구성하였다. 태풍 'MAEMI'의 Best Track은 기상청에서 제공하는 3시간 간격의 중심기압, 풍속, 중심위치를 Holland's Model에 적용하여 계산하였다. 조석효과를 고려하기 위해 개방경계에서 TPXO 7.2를 사용한 분조값을 입력하였다. 또한 하천의 흐름을 효과적으로 구현하기 위해 하천 단면에서의 동적 수위경계조건(또는 유량경계조건)을 추가적으로 부여하였다. 수치해석결과, 마산 수위 관측소에서 관측된 태풍 'MAEMI'의 해일고와 유사한 결과가 산출되었다. 범람역 해석결과는 해일, 조석, 하천을 동시적으로 고려하였을 경우에 실제 침수흔적도인 마산시재해침수지도와 가장 유사한 결과를 보였다.

As satellite altimetry is being progressed to apply with higher precision to marginal seas, it is necessary to improve correction procedures fer tidal signals in altimetry with more accurate tidal model than the well-known model of Schwiderski. The Bay of Bengal renders many conspicuous coastal oceanographic issues including tide and storm surge interactions along the upper Bangladesh coast. As a first step. tidal regime of semidiurmal tides (M$_2$, S$_2$, $N_2$, $K_2$) and diurnal tides (K$_1$, $O_1$, P$_1$) are computed with a model having a mesh resolution of 1/4 degree over the whole Bay of Bengal. Computed results are discussed with observation and previous Schwideski's tidal map of the region.
