In this Special Issue, seven high-quality papers covering the application and development of many high-end techniques for studies on storm tides, surges, and waves have been published, for instance, the employment of an artificial neural network for predicting coastal freak waves [1]; a reproduction of super typhoon-created extreme waves [2]; a numerical analysis of nonlinear interactions for storm waves, tides, and currents [3]; wave simulation for an island using a circulation–wave coupled model [4]; an analysis of typhoon-induced waves along typhoon tracks in the western North Pacific Ocean [5]; an understanding of how a storm surge prevents or severely restricts aeolian supply [6]; and an investigation of coastal settlements and an assessment of their vulnerability [7].

Storm tides, surges, and waves associated with typhoons/tropical cyclones/hurricanes are the most severe threats to coastal zones, nearshore waters, and navigational safety. Therefore, predicting typhoon/tropical cyclone/hurricane-induced storm tides, surges, waves, and coastal erosion is essential for reducing the loss of human life and property and mitigating coastal disasters. There is still a growing demand for novel techniques that could be adopted to resolve the complex physical processes of storm tides, surges, waves, and coastal erosion, even if many studies on the hindcasting/prediction/forecasting of typhoon-driven storm tides, surges, waves, and also morphology evolution have been carried out through numerical models in the last decade. This Special Issue intends to collect the latest studies on storm tide, surge, and wave modeling and analysis utilizing dynamic and statistical models and artificial intelligence approaches to improve our simulating and analytic capabilities and our understanding of storm tides, surges, and waves. Five high-quality papers have been accepted for publication in this Special Issue; these papers cover the application and development of many high-end techniques for storm tides, surges, waves, and on-site investigation of coastal erosion and accretion.

Technology: general issues --- History of engineering & technology --- typhoon wave --- sea surface temperature --- WAVEWATCH-III --- sbPOM --- depth-induced wave breaking --- wave-breaking formulation --- wave-breaking criterion --- shallow nearshore waters --- three-dimensional Bragg resonance --- regular waves --- random waves --- high-order spectral (HOS) method --- Gaussian spectrum --- V-shaped undulating bottom --- multivariate extreme value --- coastal modeling --- SWAN --- SWASH-2DH --- Corsica --- return level --- total water level --- erosion and accretion --- cross-shore profile evolution --- Lanyang River estuary --- limit of estuarine sediment transport --- northeastern coastal waters of Taiwan --- n/a

Concerns relating to energy supply and climate change have driven renewable energy targets around the world. Marine renewable energy could make a significant contribution to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and mitigating the consequences of climate change, while providing a high-technology industry. The conversion of wave and tidal energy into electricity has many advantages. Individual tidal and wave energy devices have been installed and proven, with commercial arrays planned throughout the world. The wave and tidal energy industry has developed rapidly in the past few years; therefore, it seems timely to review current research and map future challenges. Methods to improve understanding of the resource and interactions (between energy extraction, the resource and the environment) are considered, such as resource characterisation (including electricity output), design considerations (e.g., extreme and fatigue loadings) and environmental impacts, at all timescales (ranging from turbulence to decadal) and all spatial scales (from device and array scales to shelf sea scales).

Research & information: general --- tide-surge-wave model --- Taiwanese waters --- sea-state hindcast --- wave power --- wave energy --- unstructured grid model --- resource characterization --- WaveWatch III --- SWAN --- tidal energy --- experimental testing --- acoustic Doppler profiler --- Strangford Lough --- dc-dc bidirectional converter --- finite control set-model predictive control (FCS-MPC) --- oscillating water column (OWC) --- supercapacitor energy storage (SCES) --- wave climate variability --- wavelet analysis --- teleconnection patterns --- marine renewable energy --- ocean energy --- environmental effects --- wave modeling --- wave propagation --- numerical modeling --- sediment dynamics --- risk assessment --- marine current energy --- spiral involute blade --- hydrodynamic analysis --- numerical simulation --- wave energy trends --- reanalysis wave data --- Chilean coast --- renewable energy --- wave energy converters --- annual mean power production --- wave energy converter --- transmission coefficient --- absorption --- surfing amenity --- resource --- impact assessment --- feasibility study --- floating offshore wave farm --- WEC --- IRR --- LCOE --- marine energy --- unmanned ocean device --- multi-type floating bodies --- nonlinear Froude-Krylov force --- energy efficiency
