Summary The numerical models that describe storm surge, overtopping seawall and inundation in low-lying land were built up. The models cover the Three Major Bays in Japan and the southern Japan. By the models, inundation damage were estimated corresponding to changes of sea level rise, storm tide and protection level of seawall.
