Tsunami Protection Height Prediction
Predicting Tsunamis
Level I Tsunami Protection Height 1. Coastal structures protect property or help the evacuation process 2. For frequent but low-level events (several decades to 150 years)
Level II Tsunami Evacuation Height 1. Soft measures (evacuation) to protect lives 2. For infrequent higher level events (1,000 years) Central Government Guidelines to Local Governments
Deciding Tsunami Design Height (Tsunami Protection Height), Level I 1. Research Historical Tsunamis 2. Plot the Data 3. Select Level I Tsunami Heights
4. Numerical Simulations to Calculate Tsunami Height 5. Map the Data 6. Decide the Level I Tsunami Protection Height 7. Considerations of Tsunami Barrier Height Japanese Old Documents: Kamakura Oonikki
Kamakura Oonikki
(a Chronicle from 1180 to 1589)
In August 15, 1498, there was a big earthquake. A big flood attacked Kamakura city. It ran up close to the first archway of the main shrine. The water came to the temple of the Great Buddha and destroyed the hall. There were more than 200 deaths by drowning.
