Tsunami generation by ocean floor rupture front propagation: Hamiltonian description [PDF]
, 2009 The Hamiltonian method is applied to the problem of tsunami generation caused by a propagating rupture front and deformation of the ocean floor. The method establishes an alternative framework for analyzing the tsunami generation process and produces ...

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Submarine landslides occur globally and have the potential to damage seafloor infrastructure and trigger tsunamis. Recently, diatomaceous weak layers have been hypothesized to play a role in triggering submarine landslides on passive continental margins by generating overpressure.

Regional Flood Emergency Capacity Assessment Based on a Multidimensional Framework
Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.ABSTRACT Knowing the status of emergency capacity for disaster risk reduction helps the government and stakeholders to minimize vulnerabilities and disaster risk. However, there is no widely applied methodology for emergency capacity assessment. This study develops a multidimensional framework integrating vulnerability, susceptibility, and adaptability

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.ABSTRACT This study focuses on a multi‐criteria decision‐making (MCDM) analysis backed by EPA's SWMM (storm water management model) to investigate stormwater management (SM) strategies for urban areas consisting of different land‐use types. Güneysu city center (Rize, Türkiye) is used to exemplify areas consisting of impermeable surfaces, blocks of ...

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 9, Page 3999-4015, 30 May 2026.ABSTRACT Forest ecosystem services (ESs) are garnering increasing public attention as awareness grows regarding society's fundamental dependence on them for well‐being. Forest fires, one of the major disturbances of ESs, are becoming more frequent and destructive, exacerbated in part by climate change.

Modern Submarine Landslide Complexes
, 2019 Submarine landslides have been identified in almost all ocean basins worldwide. The largest submarine landslides occur on very shallow slopes and can be far larger than any terrestrial landslide. Submarine landslides can produce tsunami whose far‐reaching effects can rival those produced by earthquake‐tsunamis and threaten increasingly populated ...

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.Abstract High‐resolution climate simulations are essential to study sub‐daily extreme precipitation, yet their computational demands make long‐term large‐ensemble simulations over a large geographical region often infeasible. We introduce a case‐selective dynamical downscaling (CSDD) framework that reconstructs extreme precipitation statistics at ...
