| Abstract: | Correlation studies of the peak surges at a particular location in Hong Kong due to tropical storms with differing storm tracks and landfall positions relative to Hong Kong are presented. Empirical equations relating the peak surge with the central pressure of storm and the local maximum wind speed have been determined and these could be used for the further prediction of storm surges. |
