| Zusammenfassung |
| We propose a method to compute tsunami runup heights that is based on an
integration of numerical, 2-D shallow-water modelling and an analytical, 1-D
long-wave runup theory. This approach provides a faster forecast of tsunami
runup heights than a complicated coastal inundation model. Through
simulations of potential tsunami scenarios, this approach can also be
applied to long-term tsunami prediction. We tested the model by simulating
the historical event in the East (Japan) Sea and found that the estimates of
runup heights agreed well with the available observations. |
