Numerical simulation of surges in the White and Barents seas is based on the ADCIRC numerical model and SWAN spectral wave model. In this paper, the terms ``surge'' and ``storm surge'' were divided. The ``surge'' is considered to be a physical phenomenon, and ``storm surge'' is an eco-geographical one. A calculating method of surge height was presented. Calculations were made using an unstructured mesh with high spatial resolution, covering both the White and Barents seas with a minimum step of 50~m in the coastal zone. The NCEP/CFSR reanalysis of wind, atmospheric pressure, and ice concentration fields from 1979 to 2015 were used as the input data. The tides based on the FES 2008 database with a
