Tsunami forecast modeling for Turkish coastlines
Sharghivand, Naeimeh; Kanoğlu, Utku; Department of Engineering Sciences (2014)
Turkish coastlines have been exposed to devastating tsunamis in the past. Today, Turkey has densely populated shorelines with substantial touristic activities and critical infrastructures along its shorelines. Tsunami propagation database and tsunami forecast models for the coastal communities are the two major components of the tsunami forecasting methodology which is developed by the United States National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Center for Tsunami Research (NCTR) at the Pacifi c Marine Env...
Tsunami risk assessment using GIS-based multi criteria decision analysis at Bakirköy, İstanbul
Tüfekçi, Duygu; Süzen, Mehmet Lütfi; Yalçıner, Ahmet Cevdet; Department of Geological Engineering (2016)
Northern coast of the Sea of Marmara hosts many of coastal facilities. Bakırköy is one of the most critical coastal districts of İstanbul with the importance of air and marine transportation. There are many other coastal facilities and structures in Bakırköy district such as marinas, small scaled craft harbors, water front roads and business centers that are prone to suffer from the marine disasters. In the history, the Sea of Marmara has experienced numerous earthquakes and associated tsunamis. Therefore, ...
Tsunami Hazard Assessment on the Egyptian Coast of the Mediterranean
Zaytsev, A. I.; Babeyko, A. Yu.; Kurkin, A. A.; Yalçıner, Ahmet Cevdet; Pelinovsky, E. N. (Pleiades Publishing Ltd, 2019-09-01)
Tsunami forecast possibilities for areas with a small base of historical tsunamis have been discussed using the Probabilistic Tsunami Hazard Assessment (PTHA) method, which is based on a statistical analysis of a sufficiently large number of real and predictive earthquakes with a subsequent calculation of possible tsunami waves. This method has been used for a long-term tsunami hazard assessment on the Mediterranean coast of Egypt. The predicted wave heights have been shown to vary along the coastline due t...
TSUNAMI HYDRODYNAMIC MODELING: STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES
Synolakis, Costas; Kanoğlu, Utku (2006-09-01)
We review standards and guidelines (S + G) for inundation models that are used to evaluate hazards from tectonic- and landslide-triggered tsunamis. Standards and guidelines have evolved in the past fifteen years through the contributions of Professor Phil Liu in numerical, analytical, and laboratory studies. These S + G have been developed over the past two years to assist in the assessment of computational models used in the production of inundation maps in the US and elsewhere. When unvalidated models are...
