Background
Surge height, ~ 1 - 2 m
Occurs prior to main surge, 12h - 24h
Due to geostrophic effects, Ekman setup, size of wind field etc.
FS = fn of (geostrophic parameter, Vs, R, Ds, ...)
(Kennedy et al., 2011; Hope et al., 2013; Sebastian et al., 2014)
LATEX along GOM, hurricanes Rita(2005) & Ike(2008) caused
forerunner surges (FS)
WCK in YS, typhoons Prapiroon(2000) & Bolaven(2012) yielded FS

Previous studies
Kennedy et al.(2011); Hope et al.(2013); Kerr et al.(2013); Sebastian et
al.(2014)
Using ADCIRC+unSWAN
FS analyses for LATEX in Gulf of Mexico by Hurricane Ike
Large wind field, Ekman setup (approximately geostrophic balance between the
Coriolis force acting on the along‐‐shelf current and the across shelf pressure gradient)
resonant time ~12 hr(oscillations)
Bertin et al.(2012)
Using SELFE+WaveWatch III
FS analyses in Bay of Biscay indueced by storm Xynthia
Ekman setup, young wind-wave, oscillations
resonant time ~6 hr caused 10-20% of peak surge

Purposes
To enhance near real-time forecasting of storm surges including FS
Sensitivity tests on FS = fn of (geostrophic parameter, Vs, R, Ds, ...)
FS analyses for shallow macro-tidal coast along (WCK) in perigean
spring tide
To test YS semi-diurnal tides dominances and resonant time ≈ 12h
effect on FS
To find FS similarities or differences between GOM and YS

Summary and Conclusion
FS characteristics along WCK in YS
Efficiency ↑ with unstructured grids; dense nodes in shallow coast
Vortex shape affects to FS, asymmetrical shape > symm
Ds ↑ causes FS ↑, max. SH ≈
Wave coupling ↑ 0.1 m of FS
Bottom friction ↑ FS 6%, max. SH 8% ↓
Bottom friction ↓ FS 6%, max. SH 9% ↑
FS, SH depend on tidal current
Resonant time ≈ 12h affects to FS
Geostrophic setup effect : WCK ≠ LATEX
recursive tidal current ≠ uni-directional wind induced flow
31
Ekman setup effect behaves differently due to macro-tidal environ.
Ds, Vs, vortex shape are important factors in FS analyses
Proper bottom friction coeff, wave coupling are essential in FS
analyses
FS should be incorporated in near real-time forecasting of SH
Studied further on similarities between GOM and YS
