Abstract EN
Hourly recorded data during 1990 of sea level.
atmospheric pressure and winds in Alexandria Pon were used to estimate the surge heights and the contribution of atmospheric pressure and winds on their variations are studied.
In addition, a multiple regression equation is filled for estimation of the surge height at Alexandria by knowing the atmospheric pressure and winds.
The negative surge heights appeared during January, February, March and May; while the positive ones were observed during the rest of the year.
.
The positive surge at Alexandria occurred with northwesterly winds and with lower atmospheric pressure.
The negative surge was associated with northerly/northeasterly winds and with higher atmospheric pressure.
