The Impact of Air–Sea Flux Parameterization Methods on Simulating Storm Surges and Ocean Surface Currents by Li Cai, Bin Wang, Wenqian Wang, Xingru Feng

“…Our results quantify how the wind stress drag coefficient’s formulation alters atmosphere–ocean feedback, with wave-state aware schemes exhibiting superior surge prediction accuracy compared to wind-speed-dependent approaches. Specifically, a larger wind stress drag coefficient leads to increased atmospheric bottom stress and sea surface stress, resulting in weaker winds and larger sea surface currents and storm surges. …”
