TSUNAMIGENIC SOURCES IN THE INDIAN OCEAN [PDF]
Science of Tsunami Hazards, 2008 Based on an assessment of the repeat periods of great earthquakes from past seismicity, convergence rates and paleoseismological results, possible future source zones of tsunami generating earthquakes in the Indian Ocean (possible seismic gap areas) are ...

The Force of a Tsunami on a Wave Energy Converter [PDF]
, 2012 With an increasing emphasis on renewable energy resources, wave power technology is fast becoming a realistic solution. However, the recent tsunami in Japan was a harsh reminder of the ferocity of the ocean.

Territorium, 2000 A tsunami is a series of waves generated in a body of water by an impulse disturbance that displaces vertically the water column. Tsunamis are primarily associated with earthquakes in oceanic and coastal regions. Landslides, volcanic eruptions, nuclear explosions, and even impacts of cosmic bodies, like meteorites, can also generate tsunamis. A tsunami

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.Abstract Unraveling the surface deformation and fault kinematics during the seismic cycle is crucial for understanding earthquake physics. Herein, we use geodetic and seismic observations to quantify the interseismic coupling, coseismic rupture, and postseismic afterslip associated with the 2025 Mw 8.8 Kamchatka earthquake.

QUANTITATIVE STUDIES ABOUT TSUNAMI GENERATION AND PROPAGATION WAVES BY A STOCHASTIC SUBMARINE SLUMP AND LANDSLIDE SOURCE MODEL [PDF]
Science of Tsunami Hazards, 2018 Tsunami generation and propagation due to a vertical time-dependent extent of a stochastic submarine slump and landslide model for different values of Froude number and noise intensity are investigated.

The 2025 Mw 8.8 Kamchatka Megathrust: A Rapid Recurrence With Complex Heterogeneous Rupture
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.Abstract On 29 July 2025, a Mw 8.8 earthquake struck Kamchatka, ∼50 km from the 1952 Mw 9.0 megathrust hypocenter, exhibiting a comparable aftershock zone. We resolve the kinematic rupture process and slip distribution by combining teleseismic waveforms with high‐quality tsunami data.

A mathematical model for Tsunami generation using a conservative velocity-pressure hyperbolic system
, 2008 By using the Hugoniot curve in detonics as a Riemann invariant of a velocity-pressure model, we get a conservative hyperbolic system similar to the Euler equations. The only differences are the larger value of the adiabatic constant (= 8.678 instead of 1.

US‐Japan Alliance: Emmeshing Bilateralism Into Broader Multilateralism
Asia &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.

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.The U.S. Geological Survey recently updated the National Seismic Hazard Model (NSHM) for Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands (PRVI). The first version of the PRVI NSHM was released in 2003, and therefore this 2025 update includes over 20 years of new geologic, geophysical, and engineering data, methods, and models.

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.Economic functionality is essential for the recovery of cities and communities following disasters. A crucial factor in reducing business disruptions and guaranteeing their continuity is the capacity of employees to resume work. Facilitating the reintegration of employees into the workforce can expedite their post‐disaster recovery process and assist ...
