Abstract: | Within the framework of the nonlinear theory of long waves, we perform the numerical analysis of the one-dimensional run-up
of solitary tsunami waves upon a plane sloping coast. We study the dependences of the run-up heights on the parameters of
waves at the entrance of the shelf zone and on the slope of the coast. The run-up heights of tsunami waves are estimated for
the bottom topography typical of the south coast of the Crimean Peninsula.
