TsuDAT wave trains include those modelled from the Tonga, Chile, New Hebrides and Puysegur trenches and have ARI ranging from 200 to 36500. Using the hydrodynamic model ANUGA, results show that the events modelled have the potential to cause terrestrial inundation, high current speeds, hazardous depths and rapid changes in water level. Maximum current speeds vary in both range and magnitude according to location. Tsunami wave trains sourced from lower magnitude events and those with lower ARI result in lower maximum current speeds. As T2 source event increases in magnitude and TsuDAT ARI increases, maximum current speeds become higher. For T2 wave trains of ≤8.5MW, although current speeds may be a hazard, terrestrial inundation is minimal. As the T2 wave trains increase in source magnitude, inundation becomes apparent at Manly and in the low-lying embayments on the south side of the harbour. For the most impactful wave trains, TsuDAT wave trains which include ARI from 5000-36500, inundation is widespread and in some locations occurs above 10m elevation.]]> Tue 15 Jan 2019 12:58:00 AEDT ]]> Tsunami inundation in New South Wales estuaries: developing new attenuation rules https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:22806 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:15:24 AEDT ]]> Tsunami inundation modelling in estuaries: sensitivity to variation in tide from an emergency management perspective https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:24804 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:15:13 AEDT ]]>
