Runup of undular bores Maximum runup of every undulation. (L u =30h 0 ) The relative runup r/η changes only with the number of undulations. The relative wave height H 0 /h 0 and the lengths of the rest part of the long bores L b have no effect on r/η.

Runup of undular bores Maximum runup of every undulation. (L u =20h 0 ) The relative runup r/η increase with the decrease of the wave length of undulations.

Runup of undular bores The shoreline movement and energy budget during the runup process. (n=7, nl u +L b =20L u, H 0 /h 0 =0.02) The undulations lead the shoreline to advance and recede significantly. The long bores don't bring maximum runup but brings the maximum potential energy of the tsunami waves to the coast.

Concluding remarks Considering the potential earthquake in Manila trench, much attention should be paid on impacts of the tsunami on China coast and other coastal countries along the South China Sea. Different wave patterns appear for tsunami propagating on a continental shelf with a gentle slope. Undular bore could appear in catostrophic tsunami wave in South China Sea.

Concluding remarks A simplified model of undular bores is proposed using summation of short sinusoidal components and a long attenuation component. The large advances of the shoreline are caused by the high undulations in front of the tsunami waves. However, the runup and rundown processes of the undulations don't lead to remarkable fluctuations of the energy transformation. The long bores don't bring maximum runup but brings the maximum potential energy of the tsunami wave to the coast.

Concluding Remarks For the runup of the double solitary waves with equal wave height, the runup amplification coefficient is less than 1.0 for the case of as the small distance between two wave crests. For the case of the double solitary waves, which consists of one smaller wave followed by a larger wave at the initial time (S+L pattern), the runup amplification is less than 1.0 for the cases of smaller values of the similarity factor χ. It is found that the solitary wave with larger amplitude overtakes the first smaller wave before the runup begins.

Concluding Remarks If the factor χ is larger than a threshold value, which represents the cases that the leading smaller wave runup on the slope at first, the runup amplification of the second wave with larger amplitude is larger than that of the first wave. There are three peaks in the time series of the total potential energy of the wave field during the period of the runup of the double solitary waves against a vertical wall.
