A triangular, or ternary, plot depicts the ratios of three
different variables in an equilateral triangle. This type of plot is helpful for systems that are composed
of three different elements. The triangular
plot of Kauai at hand uses three different tsunami wave trains with the goal of
modeling the linear combination of these trains that would cause the greatest wave
at the impact site. The various
colors, from purple to red, represent the size of the resulting wave from these
tsunami wave trains.
