2004年12月26日的海啸严重影响了索马里,在距离9.0级地震震中5 000公里的地方,约有300人死亡。索马里的物理特性使得能够详细评估海啸在主要传播方向上的远场影响。教科文组织的使命调查了索马里北方邦特兰海岸沿着非洲之角以南的五个受影响城镇:埃勒、班达尔贝拉、福阿尔、萨富恩和巴尔加尔。国际小组成员于2005年3月2日至10日访问了索马里。该小组根据建筑物上的水印位置和目击者的描述测量了海啸的上升高度和当地的水流深度。最大助跑高度通常在5-9米的量级。每次测量都通过全球定位系统进行定位并拍照。许多目击者的采访都被录像记录下来。
The 26 December 2004 tsunami severely affected Somalia, with some 300 deaths at a distance of 5,000 km from the epicenter of the magnitude 9.0 earthquake. Somalia's physical characteristics allowed a detailed assessment of the far-field impact of a tsunami in the main propagation direction. The UNESCO mission surveyed five impacted towns south of the Horn of Africa along the Puntland coast in northern Somalia: Eyl, Bandarbeyla, Foar, Xaafuun, and Bargaal. The international team members visited Somalia during 2–10 March 2005. The team measured tsunami runup heights and local flow depths on the basis of the location of watermarks on buildings and eyewitness accounts. Maximum runup heights were typically on the order of 5–9 m. Each measurement was located by means of global positioning systems (GPS) and was photographed. Numerous eyewitness interviews were recorded on video.
