Abstract: By the analyses of main factors affecting storm-induced deposition in the North Passage,Yangtze Estuary, the previous storm-induced deposition formula has been improved,and a new formula has been presented in terms of the intensity and path of typhoon, the evolution tendency of local bedform and the tidal state.The handcast verification by use of No.9430 typhoon and No.9711 typhoon prove the calculated results from the new formula are in well agreement with the filed data.

Key words: storm-induced deposition, statistical model, North Passage, storm-induced deposition, statistical model
