Abstract

Information on seawater level in extreme cases is crucial for coastal engineering and management. This research predicts the 100-year seawater level along the upper Gulf of Thailand. Long-term tidal records were gathered from the Marine Department at 3 stations, being Bang Pakong tidal station in Samutprakan province, Ta Chen tidal station in Samutsakhon province, and Mae Klong tidal station in Samutsongkhram province. The records covered more than 35 years. The annual highest high seawater levels were identified for each station. The Extreme value analysis from ordered data was utilized. All tidal stations along the upper Gulf of Thailand indicated an increasing trend of the seawater level. The highest seawater level in 100 years at Bang Pakong, Ta Chen, and Mae Klong tidal stations were expected to be +2.14m MSL, +2.42m MSL, and +2.30m MSL respectively. Applications of the results can be used for designs of coastal structure or implementation of coastal management schemes.
