Regardless of the conditions of the ERF wave in the shadow zone, an increase in magnitude of energy is noticeable not only in the peak frequency within a range of approximately 0.8 to 1 Hz but also in the low-frequency range of around 0.1 Hz corresponding to second up to third crest of the leading wave. To determine the effective frequency of ERF waves and evaluate their runup characteristics, we applied a new method of describing the ERF wave, which consists of linear superposition of two solitary waves. As a result, the ERF waves show the same trend in runup characteristics as for solitary waves.}, number={36v}, journal={Coastal Engineering Proceedings}, author={Han, Sunghoon and Kaihatu, James and Lynett, Patrick and Synolakis, Costas}, year={2020}, month={Dec.}, pages={papers.13} }
