NOAA/WEST COAST AND ALASKA TSUNAMI WARNING CENTER ATLANTIC OCEAN RESPONSE CRITERIA [PDF]
Science of Tsunami Hazards, 2009 West Coast/Alaska Tsunami Warning Center (WCATWC) response criteria for earthquakes occurring in the Atlantic and Caribbean basins are presented. Initial warning center decisions are based on an earthquake’s location, magnitude, depth, distance from ...

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Abstract Background and Purpose Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and subsequent pulmonary fibrosis are associated with high mortality and limited treatment options. Periostin (POSTN) is a profibrotic mediator predicted to be regulated by microRNA‐19a‐3p (miR‐19a‐3p), but the relevance of this axis in ARDS‐associated pulmonary fibrosis remains

Generation of tsunami by a fault model.
Journal of Physics of the Earth, 1974 Characteristics of tsunami waves caused by a fault model are investigated theoretically in detail. Effect of focal parameters on tsunami amplitudes, relation with the static deformation at the source area, sense of initial motion and directivity are discussed.Main results are summarized as follows: The dip-angle, fault length and focal depth play ...

Journal of Financial Research, EarlyView.Abstract This article examines how salient sustainability risks from near‐miss natural disasters influence board composition. Using a difference‐in‐differences design, I find that firms located in counties neighboring disaster‐affected areas significantly increase the presence of directors with sustainability expertise following the disaster.

Tsunami Ping-Pong: Generating The Whole Tsunami Event
CoastLab 2024: Physical Modelling in Coastal Engineering and ScienceConsiderable progress has been made over the past two decades in modelling representative tsunami waves in the laboratory. Developments such as the pneumatic tsunami simulator, TS, (Chandler et al, 2021), large wave paddles (Schimmels et al, 2016) and pump driven systems (Goseberg et al, 2013) have allowed full incident tsunami time series to be ...

Welfare consequences of the compound risks of index insurance
Journal of Risk and Insurance, EarlyView.Abstract Index insurance is an attractive variant on the standard insurance contract that allows the determination of a loss event to be defined by one or more thresholds on an index that is positively correlated with actual losses. Index insurance also comes with a compound risk, basis risk.
