Title Analysis of surge phenomena in the Humber estuary, North-Sea coast of eastern England
 
Creator Begum, D A
 
Description 17-23
Time series
of hourly environmental parameters for the Humber
estuary are presented here. Generally higher surges are found in the Humber estuary during winter and autumn. Surges during
the period of investigation ranged from about 1 to 1.8 m in amplitude. The
variations of the corresponding meteorological parameters were also coincided
with the occurrence of high surges. Most of the time the maximum surge height
occurred after the occurrence of minimum pressure or coincide with the
occurrence of minimum pressure and maximum winds. Maximum surge height also
occurred with the decrease of air

temperature.
Linear relationship between the Hull KG surges and other meteorological
parameters are established. In winter the correlation coefficients between the
surges and other meteorological parameters became stronger as the season
proceeded. The relations are stronger in winter than in summer. Linear
correlation analysis has also been observed between suspended

particulate matter (SPM) and
environmental parameters.
