Palaeo-tsunami inundation distances deduced from roundness of gravel particles in tsunami deposits. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2019 AbstractInformation on palaeo-tsunami magnitude is scientifically and socially essential to mitigate tsunami risk. However, estimating palaeo-tsunami parameters (e.g., inundation distance) from sediments is not simple because tsunami deposits reflect complex transport processes. Here, we show a new approach to estimate tsunami inundation distance based

Machine learning-based tsunami inundation prediction derived from offshore observations. [PDF]
Nat Commun, 2022 The world’s largest and densest tsunami observing system gives us the leverage to develop a method for a real-time tsunami inundation prediction based on machine learning.

Early forecasting of tsunami inundation from tsunami and geodetic observation data with convolutional neural networks. [PDF]
Nat Commun, 2021 Rapid and accurate hazard forecasting is important for prompt evacuations and reducing casualties during natural disasters. In the decade since the 2011 Tohoku tsunami, various tsunami forecasting methods using real-time data have been proposed. However,

Earth, Planets and Space, 2022 For Japanese coastal communities along the Japan Sea, where the risk of earthquake-induced tsunamis is deemed lower than that along the Pacific Ocean, tsunami disaster mitigation strategies have not been sufficiently developed.

VALIDATION OF THE JRC TSUNAMI PROPAGATION AND INUNDATION CODES [PDF]
Science of Tsunami Hazards, 2014 In the last years several numerical codes have been developed to analyse tsunami waves. Most of these codes use a finite difference numerical approach giving good results for tsunami wave propagation, but with limitations in modelling inundation ...

Simulating Tsunami Inundation and Soil Response in a Large Centrifuge. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2019 Tsunamis are rare, extreme events and cause significant damage to coastal infrastructure, which is often exacerbated by soil instability surrounding the structures.

Tsunami inundation modeling for western Sumatra. [PDF]
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2006 A long section of the Sunda megathrust south of the great tsunamigenic earthquakes of 2004 and 2005 is well advanced in its seismic cycle and a plausible candidate for rupture in the next few decades. Our computations of tsunami propagation and inundation yield model flow depths and inundations consistent with sparse historical accounts for the last ...

Variation analysis of multiple tsunami inundation models [PDF]
Coastal Engineering Journal, 2021 Researchers have developed tsunami inundation models based on nonlinear shallow water equations to estimate tsunami propagation and inundation. However, their empirical results are not in perfect agreement with those of other research institutes, even though the same governing equations are used.

Tsunami Runup and Inundation in Tonga from the January 2022 Eruption of Hunga Volcano. [PDF]
Pure Appl Geophys, 2023 On January 15th, 2022, at approximately 4:47 pm local time (0347 UTC), several weeks of heightened activity at the Hunga volcano 65 km northwest of Tongatapu, culminated in an 11-h long violent eruption which generated a significant near-field tsunami ...

Potential inundation of Lisbon downtown by a 1755-like tsunami [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2011 In this study, we present 10 m resolution tsunami flooding maps for Lisbon downtown and the Tagus estuary. To compute these maps we use the present bathymetry and topographic maps and a reasonable estimate for the maximum credible tsunami scenario ...
