Environmental assessment of the south coast of Sri Lanka, with special reference to the 2004 tsunami [PDF]
Following the 2004 tsunami in Sumatra, Sri Lanka experienced >30,000 confirmed deaths and disruption of livelihood. Damage to coastal ecosystems was less than anticipated, especially in comparison with reported impacts from unsustainable development ...

EXTENDED FRAMEWORK FOR EARTHQUAKE AND TSUNAMI RISK ASSESSMENT: PADANG CITY A CASE STUDY [PDF]
, 2013 The Great Sumatra earthquake and resulting devastating tsunami in 2004 have highlighted the significance of earthquake risk assessment that can effectively include all main associated hazards, such as tsunami.

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 18, 28 September 2026.Abstract Slow slip events (SSEs) in the Cascadia subduction zone exhibit along‐strike segmentation, where the central segment has longer recurrence intervals but smaller moments. We quantify the controls on this variability by combining geodetic inter‐SSE coupling inversion with Bayesian inference of a quasi‐dynamic rate‐and‐state friction SSE‐cycle ...

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 18, 28 September 2026.Abstract The mechanisms underlying the patchy distribution of forearc megathrust earthquakes and arc volcanoes in subduction zones remain poorly understood. Here we present a high‐resolution seismic tomographic model of the Central American subduction zone, derived from a joint inversion of local body‐wave and teleseismic Rayleigh‐wave data.

Listening to Tsunami Waves Induced by Glacier Calving
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 18, 28 September 2026.Abstract Processes at the ice–ocean interface play a central role in regulating the stability of marine‐terminating glaciers and ice sheets and drive ocean freshening and mixing. Iceberg calving—a mechanical loss of ice—generates ocean waves and promotes water‐mass exchange in glacierized bays.

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 18, 28 September 2026.Abstract The interaction between the atmosphere and other components of the Earth system, such as the solid Earth and the oceans, remains an open and active area of research. In particular, the dynamic response of the ionosphere to forcing from below, such as earthquakes and tsunamis, is not yet fully understood.

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.Abstract Storm surges severely salinize coastal aquifers, yet post‐storm subsurface hydrodynamics remain poorly understood. We investigated surge inundation in unconfined tidal aquifers, revealing that subsurface flow recovers much faster than salinity distributions.

TSUNAMI BOOK GIVES A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF ANCIENT FLOODS ON MARS
, 2002 During 2001 Dr Edward Bryant from the University of Wollongong published a book "Tsunami: The Underrated Hazard". He proposes that the best explanation for a range of odd geological features along the south east coast of Australia is that at least one ...
