Pineau-Guillou, L., Delouis, J.-M., & Chapron, B. (2023). Characteristics of storm surge events along the North-East Atlantic coasts. Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 128, e2022JC019493. https://doi.org/10.1029/2022JC019493

This paper proposes a new method, called ECHAR, to characterize the dynamics of typical storm surge events. Analysis of 20 tide gauges in the North-East Atlantic reveals that storm surge events display a slow-time and a fast-time component lasting about 16 and 1.7 days respectively. The wind stress mostly contributes to the fast-time component, whereas the atmospheric pressure contributes to both.
