Dispersion-Correction Finite Difference Model for Simulation of Transoceanic Tsunamis

A finite difference numerical model, which can correctly consider dispersion effect of waves over a slowly varying water depth, is developed for the simulation of tsunami propagation. The present model employs a linear Boussinesq-type wave equation that can be solved more easily than typical Boussin...
