【摘要Abstract】：气象海啸（Meteotsunamis）是由雷暴等气象事件引发的破坏性波浪。作为一种常被忽视的沿海灾害，它们虽常被误判，却能造成严重的破坏、人员伤亡并对基础设施产生冲击。 本次报告将揭示气象海啸的形成机制（包括气压和风扰动），以及其在特定沿海或港口地形下的共振与放大效应。报告将列举美国（如密歇根湖、缅因州）及世界各地的气象海啸案例，并展示其在全球和区域范围内的分布情况。此外，还将介绍监测技术和综合预警系统的最新进展，并探讨关于气象海啸影响方面尚存的关键知识空白。
Meteotsunamis, destructive waves generated by meteorological events like thunderstorms, are an overlooked coastal hazard, often misidentified but causing significant damage, loss of life, and impacting infrastructure. In this talk, generation mechanisms (atmospheric pressure and wind disturbances) in addition to resonance and amplification in specific coastal/harbor geometries would be revealed. Examples of meteotsunami events in U.S. (e.g., Lake Michigan, Maine) and worldwide would be given. Global and regional occurrences of meteotsunamis would be mapped. Recent advancements in sensing and comprehensive warning systems would be introduced. critical knowledge gaps related to impacts of meteostunamis would be discussed.

Chin H. Wu教授是威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校土木与环境工程系的教授，同时也担任海岸韧性与可持续性-环境流体力学实验室（CORES Lab）的主任。他分别于1989年和1991年获得国立台湾大学的学士和硕士学位，并于1999年获得麻省理工学院（MIT）土木与环境工程博士学位，期间他是Arthur T. Ippen研究员。他的研究兴趣集中在环境流体力学和海岸工程，特别是在气候变化影响下流体流动、水资源与人类活动之间的相互作用。吴教授带领跨学科团队研究大湖区的海岸韧性、气象海啸、危险流和泥沙输运等关键问题。他的实验室采用先进的方法，包括无人机监测和实时成像技术，以开发用于海岸保护和水生生态系统修复的基于自然的解决方案。迄今为止，吴教授在包括《Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans》、《Ocean Modelling》、《Geophysical Research Letters》和《Limnology and Oceanography》在内的国际顶尖期刊上发表了大量具有影响力的论文。他曾获得大湖水上安全联盟颁发的水上安全终身成就奖以及威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校的杰出教学奖。此外，他还担任《Water》期刊的编委，并因其在水上安全和海岸管理方面的贡献而广受赞誉。
Professor Chin H. Wu is a Professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, where he also serves as the Director of the Coastal Resilience and Sustainability-Environmental Fluid Mechanics (CoSEFM) Lab. He received his B.S. and M.S. degrees from National Taiwan University in 1989 and 1991, respectively, and earned his Ph.D. in Civil and Environmental Engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in 1999, where he was an Arthur T. Ippen Fellow. His research interests focus on environmental fluid mechanics and coastal engineering, particularly the interactions between fluid flows, water resources, and human activities under the influence of climate change. Professor Wu leads trans-disciplinary teams to investigate critical issues such as coastal resilience, meteotsunamis, dangerous currents, and sediment transport in the Great Lakes region. His laboratory employs advanced methodologies, including drone-based monitoring and real-time imaging, to develop nature-based solutions for shore protection and aquatic system rehabilitation. To date, Professor Wu has published numerous influential papers in leading international journals, including Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Ocean Modelling, Geophysical Research Letters, and Limnology and Oceanography. He is a recipient of the Water Safety Lifetime Achievement Award from the Great Lakes Water Safety Consortium and the Distinguished Teaching Award from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. In addition, he serves on the Editorial Board of the journal Water and is widely recognized for his contributions to water safety and coastal management.
