Eighteen papers are included in Volume 1 of a PAGEOPH topical issue Tsunamis in the World Ocean: Past, Present, and Future. These papers are briefly introduced. They are grouped into three categories: case studies of earthquake-generated tsunamis; tsunami forecast and hazard assessments; and theoretical and computational modeling of tsunami generation, propagation, and coastal behavior. Most of the papers were presented at the 24th International Tsunami Symposium held 14-16 July 2009 in Novosibirsk, Russia, and reflect the current state of tsunami science.

Introduction to "Tsunamis in the World Ocean: Past, Present, and Future. Volume II" Satake, Kenji; Rabinovich, Alexander; Kanoğlu, Utku; Tinti, Stefano (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2011-11-01) Fifteen papers are included in Volume 2 of a PAGEOPH topical issue Tsunamis in the World Ocean: Past, Present, and Future. These papers are briefly introduced. They are grouped into three categories: reports and studies of recent tsunamis, studies on tsunami statistics and application to tsunami warning, and modeling studies of tsunami runup and inundation. Most of the papers were presented at the 24th International Tsunami Symposium held 14-16 July 2009 in Novosibirsk, Russia, and reflect the current state...
Introduction to "Sixty Years of Modern Tsunami Science, Volume 1: Lessons and Progress" Kanoğlu, Utku; Baptista, Maria Ana; Rabinovich, Alexander B. (2021-12-01) Twenty-three papers are included in this PAGEOPH topical issue "Sixty Years of Modern Tsunami Science, Volume I: Lessons and Progress". The papers are grouped into four categories: historical tsunami events, studies on tsunami source models and case studies, tsunami hydrodynamics, and probabilistic tsunami hazard assessment and forecasting. Papers that reflect the current state of tsunami science and research are briefly introduced.
Introduction to "Twenty Five Years of Modern Tsunami Science Following the 1992 Nicaragua and Flores Island Tsunamis, Volume II" Kanoğlu, Utku; Okal, Emile A.; Baptista, Maria Ana; Rabinovich, Alexander B. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2020-03-01) Following the first volume (PAGEOPH, 2019, 176, No. 7), twenty-four papers on tsunamis are included in the PAGEOPH topical issue "Twenty five years of modern tsunami science following the 1992 Nicaragua and Flores Island tsunamis: Volume II,'' reporting on the frontiers of tsunami science and research. The first two papers overview meteorological tsunamis, discussing progress since the 1992 Daytona event, and examining the March 2017 Persian Gulf destructive event. The next four papers review historical tsu...
Introduction to "Twenty Five Years of Modern Tsunami Science Following the 1992 Nicaragua and Flores Island Tsunamis, Volume I" Kanoğlu, Utku; Okal, Emile A.; Baptista, Aria Ana; Rabinovich, Alexander B. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-07-01) Twenty-two papers on tsunamis are included in the Pure and Applied Geophysicstopical issue Twenty five years of modern tsunami science following the 1992 Nicaragua and Flores Island tsunamis: Volume I, reporting on the frontiers of tsunami science and research. The first three papers overview significant tsunamis of 1992-2018 and discuss the problems of tsunami cataloguing. The main focus of the next four papers is on specific details of historical tsunami events and field surveys. First, three papers are r...
Validation and verification of tsunami numerical models Synolakis, C. E.; Bernard, E. N.; Titov, V. V.; Kanoğlu, Utku; Gonzalez, F. I. (2008-12-01) In the aftermath of the 26 December, 2004 tsunami, several quantitative predictions of inundation for historic events were presented at international meetings differing substantially from the corresponding well-established paleotsunami measurements. These significant differences attracted press attention, reducing the credibility of all inundation modeling efforts. Without exception, the predictions were made using models that had not been benchmarked. Since an increasing number of nations are now developin...
