Codes to accompany this paper:

• The radial ocean with an island:
  • README file contains links to codes and plots.
  • radial-ocean-awr11.tar.gz Tar file of all codes.
  • To run all examples, untar and then do:

         $ cd radial-ocean-awr11
         $ python make_figures.py
    

    Note: The code above requires Clawpack 4.6, which is available in the GitHub repository https://github.com/clawpack/clawpack-4.x

    Clawpack 5.x version: This has recently been updated and is available in the Clawpack apps repository in $CLAW/apps/tsunami/radial-ocean/awr2011_5.x.

    This has been tested with Clawpack version 5.2.2 and gives very similar (although not identical) results: compare_gauges.pdf

• Chile tsunami:
  • README file contains links to codes and plots.
  • chile2010awr11.tar.gz Tar file of all codes.
  • To run all examples, untar and then do:

         $ cd chile2010awr11
         $ source make_all.sh
    

  • See also $CLAW/geoclaw/examples/tsunami/chile2010 in Clawpack 5.x, which contains a similar example.

These codes run under Clawpack 4.6.0: Download

Clawpack 4.6.0 and all the dependencies (e.g Python plotting modules) are also encapsulated in the Virtual Machine VirtualClaw-4.6.0.

• GeoClaw
• Clawpack documentation
