The 1867 Virgin Island Tsunami Zahibo, N.; Pelinovsky, E.; Yalçıner, Ahmet Cevdet; Kurkin, A.; Koselkov, A.; Zaitsev, A. (Copernicus GmbH, 2003-01-01) The 1867 Virgin Island Tsunami reached large magnitude on the coasts of the Caribbean Islands. A maximum tsunami height of 10m was reported for two coastal locations (Deshaies and Sainte-Rose) in Guadeloupe. Modelling of the 1867 tsunami is performed in the framework of the nonlinear shallow-water theory. The directivity of the tsunami wave source in the Caribbean Sea according to the assumed initial waveform is investigated. The tsunami records at the several coastal regions in the Lesser Antilles, Virgin ...
The depth effect of earthquakes on tsunami heights in the Sea of Okhotsk Zaytsev, Andrey; Kostenko, Irina; Kurkin, Andrey; Pelinovsky, Efim; Yalçıner, Ahmet Cevdet (The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey, 2016-01-01) The earthquake of magnitude M-w = 8.3 that occurred on 24 May 2013 in the Sea of Okhotsk was the most powerful earthquake in the region. Fortunately, the generated tsunami was small because of the deep focal depth (609 km) and was only detected by the nearest Deep-ocean Assessment and Reporting of Tsunamis (DART) buoy records. However, the event highlighted the fact that any earthquakes with similar magnitudes at shallower focal depths would have caused considerable tsunamis. In order to evaluate the effect...
THE IMPACT OF TOPOGRAPHY ON ISOTOPES IN PRECIPITATION ACROSS THE CENTRAL ANATOLIAN PLATEAU (TURKEY) Schemmel, Fabian; Mikes, Tamas; Rojay, Fuat Bora; Mulch, Andreas (American Journal of Science (AJS), 2013-02-01) Paleoelevation reconstructions of mountain belts and orogenic plateaus based on stable isotope climate and precipitation records benefit greatly from present-day calibrations that relate the fractionation of hydrogen (delta D) and oxygen (delta O-18) isotopes in precipitation to orographic rainfall. Here, we establish a first-order template of delta D and delta O-18 of modern meteoric waters across the Central Anatolian Plateau (CAP) and its bordering Pontic and Taurus Mountains. We identify key regions in ...
Generation of the 2018 Tsunami on Sulawesi Island: Possible Sources Zaytsev, A. I.; Pelinovsky, E. N.; Yalçıner, Ahmet Cevdet; Susmoro, H.; Prasetya, G.; Hidayat, R.; Dolgikh, G. I.; Dolgikh, S. G.; Kurkin, A. A.; Dogan, G.; Zahibo, N.; Pronin, P. I. (Pleiades Publishing Ltd, 2019-05-01) Numerical simulation of a tsunami from September 28, 2018, on Sulawesi Island (Indonesia) is carried out. It is shown that the observed distribution of tsunami heights within a large area can be explained by the direct effect of a strong earthquake, whereas in the source zone (area of the city of Palu) it was produced by an underwater landslide.
Probabilistic earthquake hazard assessment for Ankara and its environs Ozmen, Bulent; Başbuğ Erkan, Berna Burçak (The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey, 2014-01-01) The capital and the second largest city of Turkey, Ankara, is generally considered to be safe in terms of seismic activities and earthquake hazard. However, recent studies and earthquakes experienced in the region showed that Ankara is not indeed seismically safe. As the number of studies on Ankara's seismic hazard increases, the number of scientists who claim that the earthquake hazard in Ankara is higher than expected also increases. However, to date no detailed analysis has been undertaken as to the eart...
