The global reach of the 26 December 2004 Sumatra tsunami.
Numerical model simulations, combined with tide-gauge and satellite altimetry data, reveal that wave amplitudes, directionality, and global propagation patterns of the 26 December 2004 Sumatra tsunami were primarily determined by the orientation and intensity of the offshore seismic line source and subsequently by the trapping effect of mid-ocean ridge topographic waveguides.
متن کاملNumerical Simulation of the December 26, 2004: Indian Ocean Tsunami
The December 26, 2004 tsunami is one of the most devastating tsunami in recorded history. It was generated in the Indian Ocean off the western coast of northern Sumatra, Indonesia at 0:58:53 (GMT) by one of the largest earthquake of the century with a moment magnitude of Mw = 9.3. In the study, we focus on a best-fitted tsunami source for tsunami modeling based on geophysical and seismological ...
متن کاملTsunami Diplomacy : Will the 26 December , 2004 Tsunami Bring Peace to the Affected Countries ?
Disaster diplomacy examines whether or not disasters induce international cooperation amongst enemy countries. The 26 December, 2004 tsunami around the Indian Ocean impacted more than a dozen countries, many with internal or external conflicts, thereby providing an opportunity to explore how the same event affects different countries in different disaster diplomacy contexts. Two groups of case ...
متن کاملDispersive Study on Tsunami Propagation of The Indian Ocean Tsunami , 26 December 2004
The Indian Ocean Tsunami (IOT) 26 December 2004 is the most devastating tsunami recorded in history causing over than 200,000 deaths and millions homeless people, uncounted property and infrastructure damaged along the coasts of Indonesia, Thailand, Sri Lanka, and the Maldives. Many lessons can be inferred for this case, one of interesting phenomena is the dispersive effect on tsunami propagati...
متن کاملNumerical Simulation of the December 26, 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami using a Higher-order Boussinesq Model
Based on differences in seafloor morphology and information about the earthquake, we develop four separate sources for the December 26, 2004 tsunami, along a 1200 km long rupture zone. We trigger these sources in a time sequence spanning 331 s, to perform a numerical simulation of the tsunami, with a higher-order Boussinesq model. We find reasonable agreement of numerical results with a few obs...
