DOI: 10.1016/j.ijdrr.2021.102462
Abstract: Abstract Tsunami evacuation is an effective way to save lives from the near-field earthquake-induced tsunami. To accurately assess tsunami evacuation risk, various uncertainties in evacuation need to be considered. For risk mitigation, it is also… read more here.

DOI: 10.5194/nhess-17-2245-2017
Abstract: Abstract. This study develops tsunami evacuation plans in Padang, Indonesia, using a stochastic tsunami simulation method. The stochastic results are based on multiple earthquake scenarios for different magnitudes (Mw 8.5, 8.75, and 9.0) that reflect asperity characteristics… read more here.
