Abstract
As a part of risk assessment to the coastal inundation, the coastal inundation area was estimated by adopting a simple bathtub approach based on numerically obtained typhoon-induced surges from the model SLOSH (Sea, Lake, and overland Surges from Hurricanes) in southern coastal city of South Korea and digital elevation map (DEM) from National Geographic Information Institute of Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport. The typhoon-induced surge heights were firstly computed while the historical typhoon MAEMI(2003) is approaching. The coastal inundation area is estimated by comparing the maximum envelop of waves (MEOW) and the elevation of land with zero-side rule (i.e. the simple bathtub approach). Comparing the inundation result to the observation data, their shapes of inundation are similar. This research mainly gained applicability of these estimating methods for estimating further potential coastal inundation.
