NEOWAVE Regional Tsunami Model: Maritime Hazards: Guam: Agat Bay
Listed in NOAA IOOS PacIOOS (Pacific Islands Ocean Observing System) at the University of Hawaii (UH)
Non-hydrostatic Evolution of Ocean WAVEs (NEOWAVE) regional tsunami model for Agat Bay along the southwest shore of the island of Guam, categorized by earthquake magnitude and subduction zone.
Description
Includes nearshore hazard maps of surge, drawdown, and current for hypothetical advisory and warning-level tsunamis from potential sources at the Mariana, Nankai, Philippine, and New Guinea subduction zones. Data are gridded at approximately 20-m resolution referenced to the WGS84 coordinate system and use a vertical datum of mean sea level (MSL).
This shock-capturing, dispersive wave model computes tsunami generation, propagation, and inundation for complex flow patterns in shelf and reef environments. It has been validated with analytical, laboratory, and field benchmarks and is approved by the National Tsunami Hazard Mitigation Program. These hazard maps cover tsunamis only; other potential hazards such as wind waves and swells would be additive to the surge, drawdown, and current described by these data.
