warning and numerical simulations, was published in “Spektrum der Wissenschaft“ in April
2006 (Geist et al. 2006). A book on numerical methods to simulate tsunami wave run-up (Liu
et al., 2007) will be published in the fall of 2007.
Studies on submarine slides and tsunami generation have been compiled in Volume 21 of
the NATO Science Series (Yalciner et al. 2003). It includes a supplement to the European
Tsunami Catalogue (Maramai et al. 2003). A compilation of tsunami in the southern East
Atlantic Ocean up to 1963 is provided by Berninghausen (1964).
In 2005, the journal „Marine Geology“ dedicated a special issue to the results of a tsunami
symposium (2003), including examples from the Atlantic Ocean and Europe.
Of particular interest to forecasting services are the risk assessments and official reports
published by other states (see list of Internet addresses in section 10.1). They exceed the
scope of this report. The modelling results given in the reports of the UK (Kerridge 2005,
Smallman 2006) and Denmark (Buch et al. 2005) supplement the simulations described in
section 7.
The selection of links in section 10 is, of course, arbitrary because the search word “tsunami“
produces a very large number of sites. Besides, the focus in section 10 is on the specific
scope of this report. Internet pages listed cover
0 Literature
1 Reports of other institutions and risk assessments
2 Databases and catalogues
3 Internet pages of research institutions and projects
4 Models
5 Tsunami simulations and benchmark problems, and
6 Waves.
