|---|
| 4 | TAS SES has recognised the potential vulnerability of the Tasmanian |
|---|
| 5 | coastline to tsunami originating from earthquakes on |
|---|
| 6 | the Puysegur trench. To understand this vulnerability, the Tasmanian State |
|---|
| 7 | Government are seeking to understand the history of tsunami by undertaking |
|---|
| 8 | paleo-tsunami investigations. The aim of this work is to support these |
|---|
| 9 | investigations by modelling two specific tsunami-genic events to assess the |
|---|
| 10 | impact to South East Tasmania. |
|---|
| 11 | |
|---|
| 12 | This report describes the modelling methodology and initial results |
|---|
| 13 | for two specific tsunami-genic events as it impacts the Hobart region |
|---|
| 14 | and its surrounds. In particular, maximum inundation maps are shown |
|---|
| 15 | and discussed for the event occurring at mean sea level. |
