Infragravity (hereafter IG) waves are surface ocean waves with frequencies below those of
wind-generated “short waves”(typically below 0.04 Hz). Here we focus on the most common …

Applying probabilistic methods to infrequent but devastating natural events is intrinsically
challenging. For tsunami analyses, a suite of geophysical assessments should be in …

We present a high-order adaptive time-stepping TVD solver for the fully nonlinear
Boussinesq model of Chen (2006), extended to include moving reference level as in …

Many studies have modeled the Tohoku tsunami of March 11, 2011 as being due entirely to
slip on an earthquake fault, but the following discrepancies suggest that further research is …

Landslide-generated waves (LGWs) are among natural hazards that have stimulated
attentions and concerns of engineers and researchers during the past decades. At the same …

The energy dissipation in the surf-zone due to wave breaking is inherently accounted for in
shock-capturing non-hydrostatic wave models, but this requires high vertical resolutions. To …

In this paper, a moving boundary technique is developed to investigate wave runup and
rundown with depth-integrated equations. Highly nonlinear and weakly dispersive equations …

Case studies of landslide tsunamis require integration of marine geology data and
interpretations into numerical simulations of tsunami attack. Many landslide tsunami …

This article focuses on the effect of dispersion in the field of tsunami modeling. Frequency
dispersion in the linear long-wave limit is first briefly discussed from a theoretical point of …

In this paper, we focus on the implementation and verification of an extended Boussinesq
model for surf zone hydrodynamics in two horizontal dimensions. The time-domain …
