Utilization of parabolic water wave transformation model for simulation tsunami wave pattern from quickbird data

Abstract

This paper utilized the parabolic wave transform model to simulate the characteristics of tsunami wave run from different QuickBird data over different locations along Aceh and kalutura, Sri-Lanka coastal waters. The wavelets transform model used to extract ocean wave parameters from QuickBird data. Also the relation between run-up height and erosion area was expressed with a run-up model. The predicted numerical results have been verified by comparing to available ground data have collected from NOAA web site measurements.
