Areas where the land lies less than a few meters above sea level are at particular risk from storm surge inundation. For a given topography and bathymetry the surge height is not solely affected by peak wind speed; the size of the storm also affects the peak surge.reas where the land lies less than a few meters above sea level are at particular risk from storm surge inundation.

1 Landslide-this type of movement of land is caused by gravity. 2  Destructive-this type of force destroys landforms. 3  Erosion-this is a type of process that breaks down landforms. 4  Ocean waves cause erosion when crashing up against rock surfaces, therefore causing the side of the rock or mountain to decrease in size.
