Revealing Submarine Landslide Signatures in South Western Palu Bay: Insights from New Shallow Bathymetric Data [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
The 2018 Palu earthquake and tsunami was a rare event where tsunami generation was partly driven by coastal and submarine landslides triggered by a supershear Mw 7.5 strike-slip earthquake. While much attention has focused on the seismic source, the role

The 2025 Kamchatka Earthquake and Tsunami: Cascading Impacts and Risks to Japan

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT On July 29th, 2025, a large earthquake (Mw 8.8) occurred near the Kamchatka Peninsula. This event caused a tsunami that reached Japan's Pacific coast, even though the source was far away. In this study, we analyze the characteristics of earthquakes and tsunamis and discuss how they relate to the recurrence possibility and risk in Japan.

Multi‐Hazard Shaking‐Tsunami Fatality Risk Estimation for Coastal Communities

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study develops a multi‐hazard fatality risk model for a coastal community (Tofino) on Vancouver Island, Canada, subjected to earthquake‐tsunami threats from the Cascadia subduction megathrust events. The model incorporates variable population distributions and uncertain fatality rate models, in addition to other key model components, such

Uneven Impacts of Seawall Heightening on Tsunami Risk Reduction under Rising Sea Levels: Probabilistic Scenarios from the Japan Trench

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Disasters exacerbated by climate change have prompted adaptation measures, including seawall heightening, which is an effective approach to protecting coastal areas. However, the combined effect of rising sea levels and tsunamis can create a compound coastal hazard, in which long‐term sea level rise amplifies the impact of tsunamis.

A scoping review on the mental health of disaster responders for natural disasters in Japan. [PDF]

open access: yesPCN Rep
This scoping review synthesized 55 studies (1997–2025) on the mental health of disaster responders in Japan following natural disasters. Mental health outcomes varied by occupation, with higher prevalence among healthcare workers, local government employees, and nuclear power plant workers, and lower prevalence among firefighters and JGSDF personnel ...

The Learning Function of Evaluation: A Conceptual Framing

open access: yesNew Directions for Evaluation, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this article, we set out a conceptual overview of what we call learning in the evaluation ecosystem to depict the interplay between external influences, organizational and community factors, and learning levers (e.g. capacity building, systems thinking).
