The Amplification of Tsunamis by Mercury Bay, New Zealand

open access: yes, 2012
The east coast of New Zealand is exposed to tsunami hazards, which are generated by both distant and near tsunamigenic sources. The impact of tsunami varies along the coast depending on the source region and the amount of local attenuation or ...

Unravelling Cascading Phenomena in Sociotechnical Systems: A Systematic Review and Modelling Framework

open access: yesSystems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article investigates the characterization of cascading phenomena within sociotechnical systems through a systematic review and the development of a conceptual modelling framework. Cascading phenomena, often described using terms such as ripple effect, domino effect, cascading failure, risk propagation and cascading effect, capture the far‐

Estimating Secondary Earthquake Aftershocks from Tsunamis

open access: yesGeosciences
Nonlinear solitary waves influence the Earth’s crust because wave pressure on the ocean bottom contains non-hydrostatic components. Our physical-mathematical model allows us to calculate the surplus super-hydrostatic pressure on the Earth’s crust.

TREND OF MICROMETEOROLOGICAL PARAMETERS DURING TSUNAMI ON THE EAST COAST OF INDIA [PDF]

open access: yesScience of Tsunami Hazards, 2005
Tsunami, a large, breaking wave is generated by displacement of seafloor occurring during earthquakes. The Sumatra earthquake of December 26,2004 at 6:28:51 IST generated the deadliest Indian Ocean tsunami causing severe damage along the coast of Indian ...

On the propagation of tsunami waves, with emphasis on the tsunami of 2004

open access: yesDiscrete and Continuous Dynamical Systems - B, 2009
In this review paper we discuss the range of validity of nonlinear dispersive integrable equations for the modelling of the propagation of tsunami waves. For the 2004 tsunami the available measurements and the geophyiscal scales involved rule out a connection between integrable nonlinear wave equations and tsunami dynamics.

TWO DECADES OF GLOBAL TSUNAMIS - 1982-2002

open access: yes, 2003
The principal purpose of this catalog is to extend the cataloging of tsunami occurrences and effects begun in 1988 by Soloviev, Go, and Kim (Catalog of Tsunamis in the Pacific 1969 to 1982) to the period extending from 1982 through 2001, and to provide a

Tsunami characteristics along the Peru-Chile trench: analysis of the 2015 Mw8.3 Illapel, the 2014 Mw8.2 iquique and the 2010 Mw8.8 maule tsunamis in the near-field

open access: yes, 2016
Tsunamis occur quite frequently following large magnitude earthquakes along the Chilean coast. Most of these earthquakes occur along the Peru-Chile Trench, one of the most seismically active subduction zones of the world.

Do the public take action when a severe snow warning is issued?

open access: yesWeather, EarlyView.
Extreme weather events pose significant risks to the population, making timely warnings essential for preparedness. The UK Met Office’s National Severe Weather Warning Service (NSWWS) has issued impact‐based alerts for over a decade, yet evaluations of their effectiveness remain limited.

Μελέτη των κυμάτων tsunamis εφαρμογή στην περιοχή μεταξύ Σαντορίνης και Βόρειας Κρήτης

open access: yes, 2007
Έγινε προσομοίωση ενός κύματος tsunamis στην περιοχή μεταξύ Σαντορίνης και Βόρειας Κρήτης. Το μοντέλο που χρησιμοποιήθηκε για την προσομοίωση γένεσης και μετάδοσης του tsunamis στην περιοχή μελέτης μας ήταν το WAVE-L.

REPRODUCING OPERATIONAL LANDSCAPES: The Rock Mining for Indonesia's New Capital City

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Indonesia's new capital city is designed to become a green and sustainable city. In this article, we examine the (un)sustainability of the process through which the city is coming into being. Using the sociospatial theory of planetary urbanization, we trace the dialectical relationship between the new city and sites beyond it to show how ...
