The book is organized into two parts: the first part covers (i) the
precious lessons obtained from recent actual tsunami disasters
including the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami and 2011 Great East Japan
Earthquake Disaster, (ii) fundamental knowledge of tsunami for our
survival, and (iii) concludes the lessons learnt and listing
measures for tsunami disaster mitigation for saving human lives.
The second part presents tsunami from academic perspective in two
chapters: one describes tsunami occurrence mechanism and near-shore
behavior; the other mentions numerical simulation and forecasting
of tsunami.

tsunami-prone areas, and to travelers who may visit such areas. The
book is composed of two parts: the first consisting of three
chapters on how to survive a tsunami by (i) describing precious

fundamental knowledge of tsunami science for survival, and (iii)
listing measures for tsunami disaster mitigation. The second part
provides more detailed scientific knowledge on tsunamis and
