    • The detection of a multiple tsunami phenomenon 
      Royer, Thomas Clark (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1969)
      A variable period band pass filter with a specified width is develop and applied to the long wave data recorded at Wake Island during the time period of March 9-12, 1957. This filter attenuates waves of periods other than ...
    • The inverse tsunami problem for symmetric islands of simple shape 
      Knowles, Charles Ernest (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1970)
      The problem investigated in this paper is that of estimating the deep water signature of a tsunami based on an observed marigram in the immediate vicinity of an island. The basic assumption is made that the incident tsunami ...
    • The inverse tsunami problem of an island 
      Yip, Kuor-Jier (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1989)
      To date there exists no deep water record of a major tsunami from a benthic pressure gauge. Such deep water records and their spectra are desirable as a means of characterizing the tsunami source. The closest thing to such ...
    • An investigation of dispersive and nondispersive long wave equations applied to oceans of variable depth 
      Mass, William John (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1978)
      Tsunami records, obtained along coastlines at points distant from their source, are greatly modified from their deep water signatures. A better understanding of tsunamis propagating in deep water is required before successful ...
    • A limited-domain numerical model for long-range tsunami propagation over an ocean of variable depth 
      Kim, Kwang Yul (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)
      A limited-domain numerical algorithm with radiational boundary conditions is developed with emphasis on the capability of real-time tsunami prediction. Bottom topography representative of the North West Pacific was employed ...
