Abstract
This study investigated inundation characteristics at Minatomachi in Arida City, Wakayama Prefecture, Japan, induced by the 2018 Typhoon Jebi. Field surveys were first conducted to capture the inundation area and the inundation depths at a witnessed time. The survey results and interviews of local residents indicated that wave overtopping of the stormy waves, as well as the storm surge, contributed to the inundation. Three numerical simulations for estimating the surge, waves, and inundation were systematically combined to represent the observed inundation characteristics. The simulation result reasonably presented the observed inundation area with the depths and indicated that the wave overtopping was the primary factor for the inundation. The results also implied that infragravity waves, developed under the storm, might have a significant impact on the inundation.
