**1. Introduction**

The storm tides, surges, and waves that are associated with typhoons/tropical cyclones/hurricanes are the most severe threats to coastal zones, nearshore waters, and navigational safety. Therefore, predicting typhoon/tropical cyclone/hurricane-induced storm tides, surges, waves, and coastal erosion is essential for reducing the loss of human life and property as well as for mitigating coastal disasters. There is still a growing demand for novel techniques that could be adopted to resolve the complex physical processes of storm tides, surges, waves, and coastal erosion, even if many studies on the hindcasting/predicting/forecasting of typhoon-driven storm tides, surges, and waves as well as on morphology evolution have been carried out through the use of numerical models in the last decade.

The intention of this Special Issue was to collect the latest studies on storm tide, surge, and wave modeling and analysis utilizing dynamic and statistical models and artificial intelligence approaches to improve our simulation and analytic capabilities and our understanding of storm tides, surges, and waves. Five high-quality papers were accepted for publication in this Special Issue; these papers cover the application and development of many high-end techniques that can be used to study storm tides, surges, waves as well as for on-site investigations of coastal erosion and accretion.
