Tsunami Propagation in Tidal Rivers [electronic resource] /
Tolkova, Elena.author.
Using observations of the 2011-Tohoku and some other tsunamis in rivers as a starting point for analytical and numerical exploration, this book suggests a basis for predicting tsunami impacts in a river after the wave has transitioned into the river’s channel.  .
Includes bibliographical references at the end of each chapters and index.
