A Numerical Investigation of Boumerdes-Zemmouri (Algeria) Earthquake and Tsunami
On May 21, 2003 Boumerdes-Zemmouri (Algeria) earthquake generated a small tsunami, which was recorded at several locations around the coast of Balearic Islands, Spain. Recent field studies (Meghraoui, et al., 2004) and teleseismic wave analysis (Yiga, 2003) indicated that the earthquake magnitude is stronger than that suggested by the Harvard CMT solution. Moreover, the seafloor displacement is...
متن کاملDamage Detection Based on Object-based Segmentation and Classification from High-resolution Satellite Images for the 2003 Boumerdes, Algeria Earthquake
A strong earthquake of magnitude 6.8 struck the Mediterranean coast of Algeria on 21 May 2003 and the city of Zemmouri in Boumerdes province was most heavily damaged. QuickBird satellite observed the Zemmouri area on 23 May 2003. By image sharpening, buildings, cars and even debris can clearly be identified in a natural colour image. Preliminarily, the present authors performed visual damage in...

متن کاملDamage Detection for the 2003 Algeria Earthquake Using Sar Intensity Images
High-resolution remote sensing using Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is one of the most promising technologies for grasping damage information of built-up areas under independence of weather condition and sun illumination. A strong earthquake occurred in the coast of Algeria on May 21, 2003. The cities of Boumerdes and Zemmouri were the most extensively damaged areas. Canadian SAR satellite, RAD...
متن کاملIdentifying Isotropic Events Using a Regional Moment Tensor Inversion
The deviatoric and isotropic source components for 17 explosions at the Nevada Test Site, as well as 12 earthquakes and 3 collapses in the surrounding region of the western US, are calculated using a regional time-domain full waveform inversion for the complete moment tensor. The events separate into specific populations according to their deviation from a pure double-couple and ratio of isotro...
