Comparison of the seafloor displacement from uniform and non-uniform slip models on tsunami simulation of the 2011 Tohoku-Oki earthquake

► Testing the uniform and non-uniform slip models on tsunami propagation. ► The influence of slip heterogeneities on the wave amplitude in the near field. ► Comparing the simulated waves from proposed tsunami and seismic inversion studies. ► The impact of larger amount of slip at the trench site for the orientation of waves.
