Using The Papathoma Tsunami Vulnerability Assessment Model to Forcast Probable Impacts, and Planning Implications, of a 500-year Tsunami in Cayucos, California
Abstract:In the absence of fully developed, and accessible assessment tools; local planners have had only basic information to assess the community's tsunami vulnerability. The Papathoma Tsunami Vulnerability Assessment Model (PTVA) is a validated method that uses available tsunami runup estimations and field data collection to produce a detailed assessment of individual building survivability and overall community vulnerability.
