Worldwide Signature of the 2022 Tonga Volcanic Tsunami

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2022
The eruption of the Hunga Tonga‐Hunga Ha'apai Volcano in January 2022 in the southwest Pacific islands of Tonga triggered a tsunami that was detected beyond the Pacific basin.

Tonga volcanic eruption and tsunami, January 2022: globally the most significant opportunity to observe an explosive and tsunamigenic submarine eruption since AD 1883 Krakatau

open access: yesGeoscience Letters, 2022
January 2022 witnessed the violent eruption of Hunga Tonga–Hunga Haʻapai submarine volcano in the South Pacific. With a volcanic explosivity index possibly equivalent to VEI 5, this represents the largest seaborne eruption for nearly one and a half ...

Granular porous landslide tsunami modelling – the 2014 Lake Askja flank collapse

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Subaerial landslides and volcano flank collapses can generate tsunamis with devastating consequences. The lack of comprehensive models incorporating both the landslide and the wave mechanics represents a gap in providing consistent predictions of real ...

Tsunami Effects on the Coast of Mexico by the Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai Volcano Eruption, Tonga

open access: yesPure and Applied Geophysics, 2022
The massive explosion by the January 15, 2022 Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai volcano in Tonga triggered a trans-oceanic tsunami generated by coupled ocean and atmospheric shock waves during the explosion.

Machine learning-based tsunami inundation prediction derived from offshore observations

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
The world’s largest and densest tsunami observing system gives us the leverage to develop a method for a real-time tsunami inundation prediction based on machine learning.

Contemporary disasters may not kill more women than men: an empirical inquiry into sex-differentiated fatalities in the twenty-first century. [PDF]

open access: yesDisasters
Abstract This study investigates the claim that women are disproportionately more likely to die in disasters by reviewing existing data sources and compiling new datasets on sex‐differentiated disaster fatalities in the twenty‐first century. The analysis is structured by disaster type, covering geophysical, meteorological, climatological, hydrological,

Probabilistic Tsunami Hazard and Risk Analysis: A Review of Research Gaps

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
Tsunamis are unpredictable and infrequent but potentially large impact natural disasters. To prepare, mitigate and prevent losses from tsunamis, probabilistic hazard and risk analysis methods have been developed and have proved useful.

Tsunami Runup and Inundation in Tonga from the January 2022 Eruption of Hunga Volcano

open access: yesPure and Applied Geophysics, 2022
On January 15th, 2022, at approximately 4:47 pm local time (0347 UTC), several weeks of heightened activity at the Hunga volcano 65 km northwest of Tongatapu, culminated in an 11-h long violent eruption which generated a significant near-field tsunami ...

Characteristics of the deep sea tsunami excited offshore Japan due to the air wave from the 2022 Tonga eruption

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2022
A large eruption of the Hunga Tonga-Hunga Haʻapai volcano in Tonga on January 15, 2022 generated air–sea coupled tsunamis observed at the ocean-bottom pressure sensor network along the Japan Trench (S-net) in Japan.

Framework for probabilistic tsunami hazard assessment considering the effects of sea-level rise due to climate change

open access: yesStructural Safety, 2022
Sea-level rise due to climate change could significantly exacerbate tsunami disasters since the sea level is a critical parameter affecting the intensity of tsunamis. Considering the impacts of future climate change on the ocean, a method to consider the
