From: Numerical estimation of a tsunami source at the flexural area of Kuril and Japan Trenches in the fifteenth to seventeenth century based on paleotsunami deposit distributions in northern Japan

Calculated inundation limit using the S, T, and U models at Yufutsu–Atsuma–Mukawa. Comparison of computed inundation limit with tsunami deposit distribution reported by Takashimizu et al. (2007): a S model, b T model, c U model. The color lines show the inundation limits of each model. The green, purple, red, and blue lines in a show S1 with a 14 m slip, S1 with an 18 m slip, S2 with a 14 m slip, and S2 with an 18 m slip, respectively. The purple, red, and blue lines in b show T1 with an 18 m slip, T2 with a 14 m slip and T2 with an 18 m slip, respectively. The blue line in c shows U2 with an 18 m slip. The gray circles and rectangles indicate the locations where tsunami deposits were found by Takashimizu et al. (2007). The black triangles show the sites where tsunami deposits are not found
