Time history of θ averaged within an 800m-by-800m window near Lampuuk Time history of θ averaged within an 800m-by-800m window near Lampuuk. Positive value means that the flow is in onshore direction and negative value means that the flow is in offshore direction.

Sediment erosion and deposit Mass conservation θc = 0.06 porosity of sand (λ = 0.3) mean sediment diameter (ds = 0.5mm )

Change of bathymetry and topography Ulee Lheue Change of bathymetry and topography At Banda Aceh 2 hours after main shock. The color scale is in meters. Positive value means deposit and negative value Suggests erosion. Lampuuk Transect of seafloor elevation. The thick blue line shows the original sea bottom and the red thin line denotes the calculated sea bottom 2 hours after the earthquake. Black line stands for the still sea level.

Flooding and erosion at Banda Aceh

Concluding Remarks COMCOT provides reasonable results for arrival time, wave height and runup; Shield parameter is used as an index for potential sediment movement; A simple sediment transport model is implemented, using the COMCOT results as an driving force. The sediment transport model needs to be improved and validated.
