This comprehensive training course provides participants with essential knowledge and numerical tools for the mathematical modelling and numerical simulation of tsunamis and meteo-tsunamis. The webinar kicked off with a theoretical overview of the processes and mechanisms behind these natural events. Participants then delved into practical simulations using the European flagship code, Tsunami-HySEA. This powerful tool solves 2D shallow water equations in both hydrostatic and dispersive forms, using high-order Finite Volume (FV) discretization for hydrostatic scenarios and Finite Differences (FD) for dispersive versions on two-way structured nested meshes in spherical coordinates. Additionally, the Meteo-HySEA extension was covered, demonstrating how meteorological forcing such as atmospheric pressure and wind stress can be integrated as boundary conditions.
