Protecting Our Shorelines: Modeling the Effects of Tsunamis and Storm Waves.

Predicting the complex behavior and aftermath of coastal tsunamis and storm surges is inherently difficult. Real-time disaster warning requires rapid computation with reliable accuracy and effective output presentation. The authors present two ways to leverage high-performance computing resources to...
