| contents | Along the northern coast of Kyushu Island, significant storm surges were unlikely to occur because the strong wind does not blow directly to the coast when typhoons passes. However, during Typhoon Maysak, various areas along the coast experienced flooding due to the storm surges. Additionally, inundation occurred when the typhoon was more than 600 km away from the coast. In this study, we classified the past typhoons into northeastward-moving, northward-moving and direct-passing overhead types and analyzed the storm surge using observational data and numerical simulations. Regarding northeastward-moving types, Hakata Bay located in the coast experienced two surge peaks. The first peak was induced by the inverted barometer effect and the stagnation of seawater in the Tsushima Strait. The second peak occurred because of the 10-hour oscillation and Ekman transport in the Tsushima Strait. For northward-moving types, Ekman transport was further intensified, resulting in a high storm surge that lasted for more than 10 hours. Regarding directly passing overhead types, one or two peaks occurred in a short period during the closest approach. The first peak was caused by the inverted barometer effect and Ekman transport, whereas the second peak was caused by the 2-hour harbor oscillation in Hakata Bay. |
