Abstract: Tsunami run-up modelings with adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) has been carried out to verify applicability and efficacy of the AMR method. A benchmark test for tsunami run-up modeling at Monai Village in Japan due to 1983 Okushiri Tsunami was chosen for validating numerical experiments with various AMR levels and bottom friction coefficients. The results from numerical experiments illustrated that the AMR method is fairly efficient with respects to modeling accuracy and computing load.
