摘要：On 23 August 2017 a Category 3 hurricane, Typhoon Hato, struck southern China.Among the hardest hit cities, Macau experienced the worst flooding since1925. In this paper, we present a high-resolution survey map recordinginundation depths and distances at 278 sites in Macau. We show that one-halfof the Macau Peninsula was inundated, with the extent largely confined by thehilly topography. The Inner Harbor area suffered the most, with a maximuminundation depth of 3.1m at the coast. Using a combination of numericalmodels, we simulate and reproduce this typhoon and storm surge event. Wefurther investigate the effects of tidal level and sea level rise on coastalinundations in Macau during the landfall of a “Hato-like” event.
