1. Locations for time series of tsunami wave amplitude output in the simulation.
The time series of wave amplitude were acquired at the 4 points indicated by Sepúlveda et al.
(2020) as shown in the Figure S1. The tide gauge measurement in Pantoloan was conducted at the
black point in the Figure S1. We compared the calculated wave amplitude and the observed ones
obtained by the video footages and tide gauge measurement and at each point.

Figure S1. The black points shows the output points of simulation results.

2. Supplemental information of section 3.2.1 in paper


We determined the parameters of Model CE by comparing with the video footages or observed run-
up heights. Table S1 shows the details of possible coastal sources and each model.
Model C included the coastal landslide sources C1-C6 assumed by Pakoksung et al. (2019) and
Models CN1-CN6 included possible coastal sources CN in addition to C1-C6. According to Model
CS, the thickness of C3-C5 were assumed as shown in Table 1 in paper.
Figure S2a and Figure S2b shows the time series of wave amplitude for Model CN1-Model CN6
and Figure S2c shows the VRO-VRC diagram for Models CN1-CN6. To evaluate the impact of
possible landslide sources CN1-CN6 on the time series of wave amplitude at the Pantoloan, we

compared the simulation results of Models CN1-CN6 with the video footage using the correlation
coefficient R and two variance reductions (see Table S2). As a result of including the CN5, Model
CN5 could explain the maximum wave amplitude better than Model CE. However, the tsunami
arrival time approximately 3 minutes after the earthquake could not be explained by using CN, so we
should investigate the possible source which can explain the video footage more accurately in
northern part of the bay in future.
Figure S3a shows the comparison of the time series of wave amplitude for Model C, Model CN5
and Model CS. Model CN5 could reproduce the wave amplitude inferred by the video at the
Pantoloan
better than Model C which had not included source CN5. Based on the comparison of Models CN5
and CS, Model CS could explain better the maximum tsunami amplitude around the area at 30 km
than Model CN5, as shown in Figure S3b. The comparison of Model CS and the observed data
revealed that K is 1.92 and κ is 1.18, which have good value than Model CN5. Therefore, we applied
the parameters of Model CS to Model CE. Figure S4 shows the simulation results for Model CE

included possible source E. The parameters of width and length and location for source E1 based on
Sepúlveda et al. (2020). We then assumed 3 sizes for source E as shown in Table S1 and investigated
the impacts on the southern coastal area. Figure S4a shows the time series of wave amplitude for
Models CE1-CE3. Model CE shows the first positive wave of 1m at Talise which was not inferred by
the video footage and the first negative component which is consistent with the video footage.
According to the tsunami video acquired in Talise, the fluctuation of sea level immediately after the
shaking was also confirmed along the shoreline (video. 13), so we should modify the possible source
E considering the uncertainty of the video footage, in future. Models CE2 and CE3 overestimated the
first wave of 1 m at West Palu. Therefore, we adopted the possible source E1 to Model CE. The
difference of the maximum tsunami heights along the shoreline for each Model CE was shown in
Figure S4b.

For comparison, Figure S5a shows the impact of coastal sources C3-4, C6 and E for different
critical slope. According to Model CE34, the reproducibility of the observations increased when a
critical slope for source C3-4 was gentle. Model CE6 for critical slope of 2 ° shows the
overestimation in the middle of the bay. Figure S5b, S5c and S5d shows the comparison of the time
series of wave amplitude of each source for different critical slope.

As mentioned in the paper, we assumed submarine sources S1-S6, as shown in Figure 8. The
parameters of width and length for S11, S211, S311, S411, S5 and S6 were specified as 250 and 500
m and for others were varied, as shown in Table S3. The results of Models CES1-CES4 are shown in
Figure S6 and the parameters K and κ for the comparison of simulation results of Models CES1-
CES4 and observed run-up heights are indicated in Table S4. The results of Models CES5 and CES6

5. Supplemental information of section 4 in paper

To investigate the approach of the tsunami which reached 300 s after the earthquake, we showed the
simulation results of Models CE2, CE5 and CE6 under the condition of critical slope of 2 ° in Figure
S8. These results indicated the tendency of the approach from the north-west of large tsunami at 300
s, while the approach from the north-east of small tsunami at the same time.
Figure S9a shows the time series of wave amplitude of Model E for different start times of 0, 30,
60, 90 and 120 s for source E. The simulation result of Model E (E begins to slide at 120 s)
reproduced the first small wave 3 min after the earthquake and first large wave 5 minutes after the
earthquake, while the tsunami arrival time at Talise and KN Hotel was not explained by the case.
Figure S9b shows the maximum tsunami amplitude of Model E for different start time for source E
which indicated the underestimation in the southern coastal area.
