Abstract: The fishery is one of the core industries and many ports are put in place around Awaji Island. If Nankai Trough Great Earthquake happens in the near future, it is expected the coastal regions of Awaji Island will suffer serious tsunami damage. Central Disaster Prevention Council in Japan announced the anticipated damage from Nankai Trough Great Earthquake; however, the verification in detail hasn’t been conducted yet. In this paper, we extract the present states and problems by hearing investigations for the managers and examine the characteristics of the anticipated tsunami damage such as submerged depth, temporal limitation of residents and ships by using the announced simulation results.
