The role of meteorological tsunamis on beach erosion in the buenos aires coast: Some numerical experiments

Meteorological tsunamis (meteotsunamis) are very similar to ordinary tsunamis but are produced by atmospheric processes. In this work, some numerical experiments are performed using XBeach numerical model investigate the role of moderate meteorological tsunamis on a sandy beach. The model was forced...

description Meteorological tsunamis (meteotsunamis) are very similar to ordinary tsunamis but are produced by atmospheric processes. In this work, some numerical experiments are performed using XBeach numerical model investigate the role of moderate meteorological tsunamis on a sandy beach. The model was forced using tide, a moderate storm surge event, wave height data series and a meteorological tsunami event recorded in the Buenos Aires coast, Argentina. Several numerical experiments were carried out considering different time lags between the peak level of the meteotsunami event and the highest sea level (storm surge and tide).
