The Making of the NEAM Tsunami Hazard Model 2018 (NEAMTHM18)

March 6, 2021March 6, 2021 tsumapsneam

The NEAM Tsunami Hazard Model 2018 (NEAMTHM18) is a probabilistic hazard model for tsunamis generated by earthquakes. It covers the

The stronger shallower segment strains and stresses the deeper segment of the seismogenic zone. The deeper segment is weaker and fails at lower stress build-up in 2016-class earthquakes. Higher shear strength along the shallow segment allows longer periods (>110 yr) of stress build-up, the release of which may result in great 1960-class earthquakes that can also extend into the deeper segment. Interseismic GPS velocities indicate high crustal shortening above the deeper section of the seismogenic zone (right inset). Pore fluid pressure gradients along the plate interface are related to the geological configuration of the margin, and exert a mechanical control on the strength segmentation and timing of stress release in the seismogenic zone (left inset).

About TSUMAPS-NEAM

The project will develop the first homogeneous region-wide long-term Probabilistic earthquake-induced Tsunami Hazard Assessment (PTHA) for the coastlines of the North East Atlantic, the Mediterranean, and connected seas, and trigger a common tsunami-risk management strategy in the region.
