abstract = {Super Cyclone Gonu is the strongest tropical cyclone on record in the Arabian Sea. Gonu caused coastal

damage due to storm surge and storm wave impact as well as wadi flooding. High water marks, overland

 flow depths, and inundation distances were measured in the coastal flood zones along the Gulf of Oman

from 1 to 4 August 2007. The high water marks peaked at Ras al Hadd at the eastern tip of Oman

 exceeding 5 meters. The storm surge of Gonu is modeled using the Advanced Circulation Model

(ADCIRC). The multi-hazard aspect is analyzed by comparing observations from Cyclone Gonu with the

2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami.},
