A digital elevation model for simulating the 1945 Makran tsunami in Karachi Harbour

Abstract The digital elevation model documented here provides a tool for calibrating tsunami models to effects of the 1945 Makran tsunami that were observed in Karachi Harbour. The DEM bathymetry is derived from soundings made mainly during the first 8 years post-tsunami. While deficient in its port...
