Tsunamis

open access: yes, 2010
A tsunami is a sea wave or series of waves produced by large disturbances of the sea floor that are of relatively short duration. Such disturbances cause the water column to move vertically and the resulting wave energy to spread outwards across the ocean surface at high speed.

Near-coast tsunami waveguiding: phenomenon and simulations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In this paper we show that shallow, elongated parts in a sloping bottom toward the coast will act as a waveguide and lead to large enhanced wave amplification for tsunami waves.

INCIPIENT EVALUATION OF TEMPORAL EL NINO AND OTHER CLIMATIC ANOMALIES IN TRIGGERING EARTHQUAKES AND TSUNAMIS – Case Study: The Earthquake and Tsunami of 16th April 2016 in Ecuador. [PDF]

open access: yesScience of Tsunami Hazards, 2017
The present study provides an incipient, cursory evaluation of the unusually strong 2015-2016 El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and of the quasi-periodic fluctuation and anomalies of sea surface temperature (SST) across the equatorial Pacific during ...

US‐Japan Alliance: Emmeshing Bilateralism Into Broader Multilateralism

open access: yesAsia &the Pacific Policy Studies, Volume 13, Issue 2, May 2026.
ABSTRACT In the 21st Century, geopolitical confrontation between the Eurasian continental powers and the sea powers works to divide Asia. The US‐Japan alliance has transformed itself from Japanʼs asymmetrical security dependence of the Cold War period into a mutual and more integrated partnership today.

Tsunami versus Infragravity Surge: Comparison of the Physical Character of Extreme Runup

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2018
Recent observations of energetic infragravity (IG) flooding events, such as those in the Philippines during Typhoon Haiyan, suggest that IG surges may approach the coast as breaking bores with periods of minutes: a very tsunami‐like characteristic ...

Depositional and stratigraphic evolution of a Permian megalake system: Implications for seiche‐influenced models

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 2, April 2026.
During the Late Permian, the rise of the Gondwanides Belt trapped marine waters, giving birth to a vast megalake. This lake shifted between overfilled, balanced‐fill and underfilled stages that are recorded by high‐frequency accommodation changes, while meteorological seiches shaped the sedimentary dynamic and produced heterolithic beds.
