Earthquakes and tsunamis caused by low-angle normal faulting in the Banda Sea, Indonesia

Tectonic Implications of Subcrustal, Normal Faulting Earthquakes in the Western Shikoku Region, Japan

Tectonic implications of subcrustal, normal faulting earthquakes in the western Shikoku region have been investigated in sorme detail, mainly based on the faulting mechanism of the Bungo channel earthquake of August 6, 1968 (M=6.6, h=45km) and its aftershocks. A synthetic study of the focal mechanism solution, spatial distribution of aftershocks, seismic waves observed in the near and far field...

Delineating Biophysical Environments of the Sunda Banda Seascape, Indonesia

The Sunda Banda Seascape (SBS), located in the center of the Coral Triangle, is a global center of marine biodiversity and a conservation priority. We proposed the first biophysical environmental delineation of the SBS using globally available satellite remote sensing and model-assimilated data to categorize this area into unique and meaningful biophysical classes. Specifically, the SBS was par...

Notes Tsunamis and Earthquakes: What Physics Is Interesting?

Tsunamis present a wonderful opportunity to explain physics at work. Instructors can enrich a physics with a topic that can catch the students' attention as as convey some very nice ideas, many of which are Regrettably, fluid dynamics is not well covered physics curricula, but the ideas have natural !IIDC~cti1:>ns to basic conservation Jaws, optics, and quantum a;nam1~s. They can also be used t...
