Outline of Final Research Achievements

Tsunami responses in frequency domain due to bathymetry effect were quantitatively obtained. First, tsunami simulations were performed for the Nankai Trough earthquakes using a stochastic fault generation model. From the tsunami simulation results, the tsunami response functions were obtained by performing a spectral analysis of the simulates tsunami waveforms in the source and coastal regions. The obtained response were validated by comparing them with the resonance periods estimated from the linear wave theory. As a result, the predominant periods corresponding to each scale in the tsunami propagation process was extracted by ensemble of spectral ratios among the scenarios. The extracted response functions are consistent with the theoretical resonance period under simplified topographic conditions, indicating the validity of the method.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

津波や高潮などの長波の挙動は海底地形の影響を大きく受ける.本研究では,地形によって津波がどのよに応答し,沿岸域でどのように増幅するかを定量化した.この応答は,外洋から沿岸部へ進行する津波の変化を予測しうるものであり,即時予測手法の改良や沿岸域での津波の継続時間の予測への応用が期待される.
