Influence of Flow Velocity on Tsunami Loss Estimation
Geosciences, 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]
Coastal 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
Geoscience 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]
Natural 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]
, 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 ...
