Survey of 2011 Tohoku earthquake tsunami inundation and run‐up
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors conducted a tsunami survey along a 2000 km stretch of the Japanese coast from about 50 to 200 km north of Sendai, the narrow bays focused the tsunami waves, generating the largest inundation heights and run-ups.
Journal ArticleDOI
Projected changes in wave climate from a multi-model ensemble
TL;DR: In this paper, the first community-derived multi-model ensemble of wind-wave climate projections show agreement over extended regions of the global ocean and large uncertainty in available wave-climate projections is found to be due to downscaling methods.
Journal ArticleDOI
On Kurtosis and Occurrence Probability of Freak Waves
TL;DR: Based on a weakly non-Gaussian theory, the occurrence probability of freak waves is formulated in terms of the number of waves in a time series and the surface elevation kurtosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Statistical properties of directional ocean waves: the role of the modulational instability in the formation of extreme events.
Miguel Onorato,Takuji Waseda,Alessandro Toffoli,Luigi Cavaleri,Odin Gramstad,Peter A. E. M. Janssen,Takeshi Kinoshita,Jaak Monbaliu,Nobuhito Mori,A. R. Osborne,M. Serio,Carl Trygve Stansberg,Hitoshi Tamura,Karsten Trulsen +13 more
TL;DR: Two independent, large scale experiments performed in two wave basins of different dimensions show that the probability of the formation of large amplitude waves strongly depends on the directional properties of the waves.
Journal ArticleDOI
Local amplification of storm surge by Super Typhoon Haiyan in Leyte Gulf.
Nobuhito Mori,Masaya Kato,Sooyoul Kim,Hajime Mase,Yoko Shibutani,Tetsuya Takemi,Kazuhisa Tsuboki,Tomohiro Yasuda +7 more
TL;DR: The numerical experiments show the coherent structure of the storm surge profile due to the specific bathymetry of Leyte Gulf and the Philippines Trench as a major contributor to the disaster in Tacloban and indicated the sensitivity of storm surge forecast.
