Resonance in the Yueqing Bay generated by March 11 Japan Tsunami

Abstract

Abstract: In this study, a numerical model based on TELEMAC-2D was developed for the Pacific Ocean and the China Seas to simulate the propagation of the tsunami wave of the Honshu (Japan) tsunami event on March 11^th, 2011. After validated against in-situ observation data from buoys, the influence of this event on the Yueqing Bay was investigated. By using a spectrum analysis, the amplitudes and phases of the resonance waves in the Yueqing Bay were found with the dominating periods of 240 min, 180 min and 103 min. A regional model driven by a white-noise-like boundary condition further elucidated the property of the natural oscillation at these periods, further supporting the finding of the three resonance modes. Moreover, the white-noise-driven model suggested that maximum amplitudes would appear both in the upper bay and at the bay mouth when tsunami disasters occurred. The conclusion of this paper can be instructive for disaster management and reduction of local governance.
