Runup of Single Waves on a Sloping Beach
Possibilities of high shoreline amplification and runup are investigated. Shoreline amplification of magnitude 5.38 and a tsunamigenic (deep water) amplification of magnitude 5.71 are obtained from single waves without analytic or computation difficulties. It is not claimed that this is a maximum, but rather it is conjectured that arbitrarily high runup and amplification can be obtained provided the correct initial wave trains are chosen. (Author)
