Abstract
 It is required to establish a consistent evaluation scheme regarding the estimation of tsunami height possibly triggered by the future landslide, since the standard framework for evaluation has not been established although case studies of reproduction calculation for the past individual events have been proposed.
 In this study, we proposed the case of evaluating tsunami height triggered by the landslide with multiple calculation models by setting the detailed profile of the landslide based on the results of literature survey and on-site geological survey. In addition to the kinematic method, another approach using a wave source amplitude prediction formula based on experiments was proposed as a method of estimating the initial water level distribution of the landslide tsunami.
