Taranaki Tsunami Inundation Analysis: Update 2017
1 Summary
In 2012, HBRC conducted a tsunami computer modelling exercise for the Taranaki
coast using 2 m and 4 m waves. This 2017 updated report provides the results from
additional model runs using a wave height of 10 m. The 10 m wave height is
considered to have a return period of well beyond 2500 years, as the height is not
reached in any of the tsunami hazard plots from the 2013 National Tsunami Hazard
Model (Power, 2014). The decision to include such a wave height was in order to
show inundation extents that covered any conceivable wave height, up to and
including a value (10 m) that is easily visualised by the general public.
In addition, areas of the coast not covered in the 2012 study were examined using air
photos and contours where available to identify the “Marine Threat Only” area. In
areas not yet modelled using the 2-dimensional computer model, the GNS
attenuation rule (Fraser, Power, 2013) was used to estimate inland inundation.
The results of the 10 m wave indicate there is infrastructure at risk from such an
event in the Taranaki Region. While most places have a steeply rising coastal area
which prevents any significant inland inundation, several places have low-lying areas
which are susceptible to inundation. The specific areas at risk are identified in the
accompanying GIS layers developed for this report. A set of maps for the region is
also included as an appendix to this report.
The 2012 report provided the background to the method of analysis used for the
computer modelling, and is not repeated in this report. The use of the GNS
attenuation rule is described in this report.
It should be stressed that the information presented in this report relating in particular
to the 10 m wave results are very extreme in nature, and should not be used by Local
Authorities to delineate specific properties as being within the inundation area, and
therefore subject the property to a notice on a Land Information Memorandum (LIM)
indicating it is in a hazard zone.
2 Study Area
The area covered in the initial 2012 analysis is shown in Figure 1.

being applied at the boundaries.

3 Wave Details
The wave patterns used in the models are shown in Figure 3.

Figure 3: Tsunami Wave Patterns used in 2D model
The highest wave amplitudes were applied at mid-tide levels. The wave heights are
applied such that the 2 m wave rises 1 m above and falls 1 m below the normal tide,
the 4 m wave rises 2 m above and falls 2 m below the normal tide, and the 10 m
wave rises 5 m above and falls 5 m below the normal tide. The timing between the
peak and the trough was set to 20 minutes. This was based on anecdotal evidence
from recently occurring tsunami from Indonesia, Chile, Samoa and Japan. These
waves were applied to the offshore boundary.
4 GNS Attenuation Rule
The attenuation rule was developed by GNS (2009, Leonard et. al, and 2013, Fraser
S., Power W.). The rule has been shown to provide reasonably accurate
representation of inland inundation from tsunami based waves. The application is as
follows:
For a given shoreline wave height, the wave height was added to a mid tide value (in
this case 2 m), then the following attenuation rules were applied:
 The potential runup height attenuates at a rate of 1 m for every 200 m

horizontal inland for flow direct from the coast.
4

horizontal inland for flow up a significant river.
horizontal inland for flow over land away from a significant river.
The application of these rules was by a manual method using contours (where
available) while estimating where the attenuation line would intersect the appropriate
ground contour.
5 Results
In 2012 the computer model results were used to create three evacuation zones,
according to the Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management Guidelines
(MCDEM 2008). The zones recommended by MCDEM are:
Red Zone: Shore exclusion zone that can be designated off limits in the event of
any expected tsunami.
Orange Zone: Includes the area to be evacuated in most if not all distant and
regional-source official warnings, from sources more than 1 hour of
travel time.
Yellow Zone: Should cover all maximum credible tsunami, including the highest
impact events.
The additional information included in this report is based on a 10 m wave, which

was chosen as an extreme upper limit. This wave height is shown in the maps
attached to the appendix in purple.
A sample map is shown in Figure 4.

6 Limitations and Accuracy
The results presented in this report are based on computer models which provide an
output based on the input parameters chosen. While care and research has gone
into selecting the input parameters, there are many unknown variables which could
alter the parameters and produce slightly different results in terms of inundation
depths, extents and timing of the waves. The scenarios examined and the range of
parameters chosen have given a broad spectrum of results, including extremely
severe scenarios which may have return periods of many thousands of years. It
should be stressed that the overall accuracy of such modelling results is limited;
however the model results do represent plausible scenarios which provide an
indication of the severity of the possibility of tsunami waves hitting this particular
coastline.
7 Conclusion
A series of waves simulating tsunami events with 2 m, 4 m, and 10 m high waves

were applied to computer models of areas around the Taranaki Coast. Inundation
extents were generated from the models, which were plotted according to the
guidelines from Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management.
In general, there are many areas along the Taranaki Coast that would only suffer
very localised threat and minor damage from even the largest plausible tsunami.
Several areas that have river inlets, with infrastructure in low areas near the river
edge would likely suffer more damage due to inundation.

The inundation zones were derived from 2-Dimesional hydrodynamic
models for populated areas, and an attenuation rule for less populated areas.
The attenuation rule was developed by GNS
(ref. Interim tsunami evacuation planning zone boundary mapping
for the Wellington and Horizons regions defined by a
GIS-calculated attenuation rule. GNS Science Report 2008/30,
April 2009, G.S. Leonard et. al.).
The GNS attenuation rules are:

Attenuation of 1 m in height for every 200 m inland over normal terrain,
Attenuation of 1 m in height for every 400 m inland up significant rivers,
Attenuation of 1 m in height for every 50 m away from significant rivers.
For the Taranaki Region, contour plans were used to

manually determine the approximate inland inundation using the
above rules.
Wave heights (crest to trough) used in this model are:

a. Marine Threat only (Red Zone)
1
b. 2 m wave (Orange zone)
c. 4 m wave (Yellow zone)
d. 10 m wave (Purple zone)
The wave heights were applied to mid tide, then the

attenuation rules were applied.
A visual representation of the attenuation rule is shown below.

Taranaki Tsunami Inundation Analysis: Update 2017

The area covered in the initial 2012 analysis is shown in Figure 1.

Oakura to Bell Block

Figure 1: 2012 Study areas – Location where 2D models were created.

The present study encompasses the entire coastline, as shown in Figure 2.

Figure 2: 2017 Study areas – map reference sheets

The wave patterns used in the models are shown in Figure 3.

4 GNS Attenuation Rule

 The potential runup height attenuates at a rate of 1 m for every 200 m

 The potential runup height attenuates at a rate of 1 m for every 400 m

The additional information included in this report is based on a 10 m wave, which

A sample map is shown in Figure 4.
