description abstract | Landslide-generated tsunami predictions are commonly based on two-dimensional (2D) wave channel or three-dimensional (3D) wave basin experiments with considerably different outcomes. It is not fully understood which idealized water body geometry applies best to a specific prototype. Hence, a physical small-scale model study has been conducted that, for the first time, systematically investigates the effect of geometry on landslide-generated tsunami height, amplitude, period, and celerity.
