Signals from the tsunami waves induced by the March 11, 2011 moment magnitude (M-w) 9.0 Tohoku-Oki earthquake and from subsequent resonances were detected as radial velocity variability by a high-frequency ocean surface radar (HF radar) installed on the eastern coast of the Kii Channel, at a range of about 1000 km from the epicenter along the eastern to southern coasts of Honshu Island. A time-distance diagram of band-passed (9-200 min) radial velocity along the beam reveals that the tsunami waves propagated from the continental shelf slope to the inner channel as progressive waves for the first three waves, and then natural oscillations were excited by the waves; and that the direction of the tsunami wave propagation and the axis of the natural oscillations differed from that of the radar beam. In addition, spectral analyses of the radial velocities and sea surface heights obtained in the channel and on the continental shelf slope suggest complex natural oscillation modes excited by the tsunami waves.
The major advantage of the HF radars as tsunami detection is early warning as the tsunami is still far offshore. There is no doubt on this importance beside still technical and operational studies are needed. Our results adds a new role of the HF radars to measure the detailed surface current fields with high spatiotemporal resolution toward understanding detailed processes of resonant response to tsunami waves in coastal regions.
