Geographic Information Systems (GIS) Application for Tsunami Inundation Modeling in Bantul Regency, Yogyakarta

open access: yesJurnal Nasional Pendidikan Teknik Informatika (JANAPATI), 2014
Tsunami(s) are natural disasters generated by abrupt, large disturbance of ocean bottom such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, landslides, or meteor impacts which creates high ocean waves.

Potential inundation of Lisbon downtown by a 1755-like tsunami [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2011
In this study, we present 10 m resolution tsunami flooding maps for Lisbon downtown and the Tagus estuary. To compute these maps we use the present bathymetry and topographic maps and a reasonable estimate for the maximum credible tsunami scenario ...

A SURVEY METHOD OF TSUNAMI INUNDATION AREA USING CHEMICAL COMPONENTS IN TSUNAMI INUNDATED SOIL

open access: yesJournal of Japan Society of Civil Engineers, Ser. B2 (Coastal Engineering), 2011
A severe earthquake of Mw 8.8 occurred on 27 Feb. 2010 at Chil and the subsequent tsunami attacked the coast. The field survey was conducted in Chile to develop a new survey method based on a chemical analysis of soil. The soil samples were obtained from both the inundated and the not-inundated area and the content of water-soluble ions, electric ...

Influence of Flow Velocity on Tsunami Loss Estimation

open access: yesGeosciences, 2017
Inundation depth is commonly used as an intensity measure in tsunami fragility analysis. However, inundation depth cannot be taken as the sole representation of tsunami impact on structures, especially when structural damage is caused by hydrodynamic and

TSUNAMI PRESSURE ON STRUCTURES DUE TO TSUNAMI INUNDATION FLOW [PDF]

open access: yesCoastal Engineering Proceedings, 2014
Inundation depth, velocity flow and resultant Froude number of tsunami were investigated both experimentally and numerically. The bottom roughness is a key factor to estimate the inundation flow of tsunami. Pressure profile acting on 2-D vertical walls and 3-D structures due to inundation flow of tsunamis were also discussed.

Geochemical approaches in tsunami research: current knowledge and challenges

open access: yesGeoscience Letters, 2021
Over the past decade or so, geochemical techniques have been applied to the study of modern and past tsunamis. Seawater incursions and the introduction of marine organic matter can be detected through geochemical analysis, providing strong evidence that ...

Assessing local impacts of the 1700 CE Cascadia earthquake and tsunami using tree-ring growth histories: a case study in South Beach, Oregon, USA [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2021
We present an investigation of the disturbance history of an old-growth Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) stand in South Beach, Oregon, for possible growth changes due to tsunami inundation caused by the 1700 CE Cascadia Subduction Zone (CSZ ...

Tsunami inundation maps of Sitka, Alaska [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The purpose of this study is to evaluate potential tsunami hazards for the community of Sitka. We numerically modeled the extent of inundation from tsunami waves generated by near- and far-field tectonic sources. We performed numerical modeling of historic events at Sitka, such as the tsunami triggered by the 1964 Great Alaska Earthquake, and the ...
