On the construction and use of a Paleo-DEM to reproduce tsunami inundation in a historical urban environment: the case of the 1755 Lisbon tsunami in Cascais

In this study, we present a methodology to reconstruct a Paleo Digital Elevation Model (PDEM) to simulate the propagation of a tsunami similar to the one that occurred on the 1st November 1755 in Cascais, Portugal. The method combines historical data, GPS-measurements, and presentday topographic dat...
