The 1896 Sanriku earthquake caused large (up to 38 m of run-up height) tsunamis on the Sanriku coast with 22,000 casualties, although the seismic shaking was not very strong.
The maximum-height tsunami profile resulting from the larger-earthquake scenario is much higher than almost all those determined from historical damage records (Figure 7a).
In Figure 9a, tsunami heights obtained from historical damage records from the 1707 Hoei tsunami event along the Pacific coast of the Kinki region are plotted in green, together with maximum-height tsunami profiles resulting from the larger- and smaller-earthquake scenarios, plotted in black and gray, respectively.
In Figure 8a, tsunami heights obtained from historical damage records from the 1707 Hoei tsunami event along the Pacific coast of the Shikoku region are plotted in pink, together with maximum-height tsunami profiles resulting from the larger- and smaller-earthquake scenarios, plotted in black and gray, respectively.
As most of the real damage records lie between the maximum-height tsunami profiles resulting from the larger- and smaller-earthquake scenarios, the K-values for the larger- and smaller-earthquake scenarios are far from 1, i.e., they are 0.74 and 1.48, respectively, as listed in Table 1.
In Figure 10a, tsunami heights obtained from historical damage records from the 1707 Hoei tsunami event along the Pacific coast of Tokai region are plotted in blue, together with maximum-height tsunami profiles resulting from the larger- and smaller-earthquake scenarios, plotted in black and gray, respectively.
Increasing the height of tsunami walls, he said, is the obvious answer in the immediate term.
The plant was designed to absorb swells of up to about nineteen feet in height; the tsunami that arrived in March was more than twice that tall.
These include increasing the height of tsunami walls and upgrading emergency equipment, plans, and training.
