Abstract

Description

This report documents a Tsunami Hazard Assessment study of the site on the campus of the Long Beach Elementary School for a proposed tsunami vertical evacuation berm structure. The study conducted GeoClaw tsunami model simulations for two scenarios: a near-field tsunamigenic M9.0 earthquake on the Cascadia Subduction Zone, and a far-field event similar to the 1964 Alaska M9.2 earthquake and tsunami.
