The Watusampu Water Coast was one of the waters affected by the tsunami waves on September 28, 2018. The height of the tsunami waves reached 6.6 meters and submerged as far as 71.4 meters inland. This study aims to see the bathymetry and tidal characteristics of Watusampu waters after the 2018 tsunami. The results of bathymetry measurements are corrected with tidal data. The results of tide measurements are compared with the predicted results and then analyzed by T-tide to calculate the tidal constituents used in the calculation of the planned water level in Watusampu waters. The bathymetry depth in the Watusampu waters ranges from 66.5 meters. The slope of the coastal waters has increased from north to south. The type of tide in Watusampu waters is mixed tides with a double daily inclination. The dominant tidal constituents are M2 and S2, respectively, with an amplitude of 0.5336 m and 0.4025 m. The tide wave height at the neap tide and spring tide is 0.2622 and 1.8722 m, respectively.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
