MAPPING OF POTENTIAL AREAS TSUNAMI PRONE IN BENGKULU CITY

Bengkulu city including tsunami-prone areas. This study aims to calculate the level of tsunami hazard in the Bengkulu city. The risk level is calculated based on the height from sea level (h), the distance from the shoreline (x), distance from the nearest river (s), the condition of geomorphology (k), the number of buildings persquare kilometer (p),and the value of the peak ground acceleration (a). All variables are me asured with the rules of research. Tsunami wilcontinue to be a threat in earthquake prone areas. Threats region more concentrated along the coast and moves up stream afaras 10 kilometers. Tsunami threat is more factual determined by height, distance from the shorel in e, distance from the nearest riv er, and peak ground acceleration . The correlation between tsunami potenstial score with each variable tends to be linea
