Presets

A tsunami is a shallow-water wave even in the deep ocean, travelling at √(g·h). Over 4 km of water that is roughly 700 km/h — jet speed — yet only tens of centimeters high. As it reaches shallow coast it slows and its amplitude grows as h^(−1/4) (Green's law), piling into a destructive wall.

Governing equation

Reading this result: At 4000 m depth the pulse moves at ~713 km/h; Green law shoaling then amplifies its 0.5 m deep-water height as it nears the coast.

About this simulation

The full Tsunami Propagation tool models a dust bowl with the same numerics engineers and scientists use — running entirely client-side. Change any parameter and the result updates in real time, so you can build intuition, check a design, or teach the concept without spreadsheets or installs.

Frequently asked questions

How do I simulate a dust bowl?
Open this page and use the live Tsunami Propagation tool below — set your inputs and the simulation runs instantly in your browser using real numerics. No install, no account needed.
Is it free?
Yes. The simulation runs free in your browser. A one-time unlock or a Pro plan adds advanced parameters, saved presets, data import, and clean exports.
Can I use my own numbers?
Absolutely — every input is adjustable, and with data import you can drive a dust bowl from your own measurements.
