Abstract: The mathematical modeling of storm surge in sea and
coastal regions such as the South China Sea (SCS) and the Gulf of
Thailand (GoT) are important to study the typhoon characteristics.
The storm surge causes an inundation at a lateral boundary exhibiting
in the coastal zones particularly in the GoT and some part of the SCS.
The model simulations in the three dimensional primitive equations
with a high resolution model are important to protect local properties
and human life from the typhoon surges. In the present study, the
mathematical modeling is used to simulate the typhoon–induced
surges in three case studies of Typhoon Linda 1997. The results
of model simulations at the tide gauge stations can describe the
characteristics of storm surges at the coastal zones.
