**Table 1.** lists the 17 tsunami events recorded and documented in Sweden up to now [3]. The corresponding spectrum of inferred wave heights is provided in **Figure 1** [6]. In the present chapter, five of the events will be picked out and discussed as case studies from Sweden and its surrounding seas [1].
