    "descript": "This USGS data release provides model setup files to simulate a hypothetical sublacustrine landslide in Lake Quinault and resulting tsunami waves. The BingClaw model (Kim and others, 2019; Kim and others, 2025) is used to model slope failure and GeoClaw (Berger and LeVeque, 2023; Clawpack Development Team, 2025) is used to model tsunami propagation and inundation. A topobathymetric digital terrain model (DTM) used in both models is provided and was merged from several elevation data sources (National Centers for Environmental Information, 2023; Washington Geological Survey, 2012; 2018; 2019; 2020). Zip files are provided for each model that can be used to reproduce the simulations. An example set of modeled outputs are also provided in each zip file.",

            "scope": "Includes measures of the height of a location above or below a reference surface. Bathymetry is the elevation of the Earth's surface beneath a body of water, especially the ocean, typically determined by measurements of depth from the water surface at mean lower low water. Distributions are topographic maps and bathymetric charts based on collected data and also include smoothed or gridded maps of bathymetry and elevation from observational data or other associated factors. Assessment data types include models of ecological value, economic value, or current rates of alterations due to erosion, accretion, climate change, and other stressors (for example, wetland habitat loss). Predictions are the results of models or projections of future distributions, values, or ecological impacts of bathymetry, including predicted changes due to natural and human forces such as erosion, deposition, sea-level rise, and dredging activities; predictions also include the results of scenario-based models of bathymetry changes under different management strategies."
