Discontinuous Galerkin scheme for the spherical shallow water equations with applications to tsunami modeling and prediction

- Well-balanced dG discretization for curved, non-conforming meshes.
- Wetting/drying method for any order that is well-balanced and consistent with the model.
- Locally adaptive tsunami simulations on the entire, rotating sphere including dry areas.
- Verification of the well-balanced property and accuracy using 1D test cases.
- Simulation of the 2011 Tohoku tsunami and validation using real-world buoy data.
