   The Role of Storms in Geomorphology and Biology
   Beyond immediate weather effects, storms exert long-term influence on geological systems and biological systems. High-energy storm surges sculpt coastal topography, leading to rapid erosion or deposition rates that occasionally surpass tectonic plate movement on localized time scales [5].

2. Storm Surge

   Linked via "Coastal topography"

   The shape of the seafloor (bathymetry) immediately offshore is the single most important determinant of surge amplification. Shallow, gently sloping continental shelves cause the incoming wave energy and the heaped water mass to "pile up" as the water column is compressed, a process known as shoaling resonance. For example, basins with a shelf slope g…
