a Rate of increase in the tsunami height by extending the offshore fault length. The data were acquired at Kimiga-hama beach, which is located in front of Kobatake-ike (see Fig. 2). The rate of increase is defined as the tsunami height divided by that of the offshore fault with a length of 50 km. The tsunami reaches Kobatake-ike for offshore fault lengths exceeding 120 km. b Comparison between the observed tsunami heights and the calculated results according to Model 6
