Tsunami Amplitude (Maximum)
Tsunami Amplitude (Maximum) : Usually measured on a water level record, it is half the value of the maximum peak-to-trough excursion, corrected for the change of tide between that peak and trough. tsunami magnitude Mt Measurement of the overall physical size of a tsunami, defined in terms of instrumental tsunami-wave amplitudes. Tsunami magnitude is Defined By: Mt = log2H as revised by Iida, Cox, and Pararas-Carayannis (1967), where H is the maximum run-up height or amplitude on a coastline near the generating area. Other
