The paper presents a numerical model to reproduce the tsunami generation and propagation, which can be applied in real-time to be used as a forecasting tool. Free surface elevation measurements in a point close to the tsunami generation area, allows the real-time prediction of tsunami in the far field. This is possible due to an inversion technique. The measurements and modeling of hydro-acoustic waves could shorten the time for spreading the alarm and reduce the number of false alerts. In the paper new investigation about hydro-acoustic waves are also presented in order to outline their possible use to support Tsunami Early Warning System.

Abstract
The paper presents a numerical model to reproduce the tsunami generation and propagation, which can be applied in real-time to be used as a forecasting tool. Free surface elevation measurements in a point close to the tsunami generation area, allows the real-time prediction of tsunami in the far field. This is possible due to an inversion technique. The measurements and modeling of hydro-acoustic waves could shorten the time for spreading the alarm and reduce the number of false alerts. In the paper new investigation about hydro-acoustic waves are also presented in order to outline their possible use to support Tsunami Early Warning System.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
