A Model for TSUnami FLow INversion from Deposits (TSUFLIND)

open access: yes, 2015
Modern tsunami deposits are employed to estimate the overland flow characteristics of tsunamis. With the help of the overland-flow characteristics, the characteristics of the causative tsunami wave can be estimated.

Real-time detection of tsunami ionospheric disturbances with a stand-alone GNSS receiver. A preliminary feasibility demonstration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
It is well known that tsunamis can produce gravity waves that propagate up to the ionosphere generating disturbed electron densities in the E and F regions. These ionospheric disturbances can be studied in detail using ionospheric total electron content (

EVALUATION OF THE IMPACT OF MAJOR EARTHQUAKES ON EXCITING LONG PERIOD FREE-EARTH LITHOSPHERIC OSCILLATIONS, ATMOSPHERIC-IONOSPHERIC PERTRUBATIONS, AND FAR-FIELD TSUNAMI-LIKE WATER LEVEL FLUCTUATIONS [PDF]

open access: yesScience of Tsunami Hazards, 2020
The whole Earth resonates like a bell with normal modes of resonance at distinct frequencies. When extremely large earthquakes strike, the Earth’s free oscillations are excited.

Shallow very-low-frequency earthquakes accompany slow slip events in the Nankai subduction zone

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Slow earthquakes are now increasingly recognised to occur at plate boundaries globally. Here, the authors examine seafloor observational data from the Nankai trough and find that very-low-frequency events and slow-slip events frequently occur together ...
