Catastrophic Landscape Modification from Massive Landslide Tsunamis: An Example from Taan Fiord, Alaska
The October 17<sup>th</sup> 2015 Taan landslide and tsunami generated a high runup of 192 m, nearly an order of magnitude greater than most previously surveyed tsunamis. Extensive modifications observed and documented on several low gradient fan deltas within the fiord make Taan Fiord an excellent …

Landslide generated tsunamis : numerical modeling and real-time prediction
Submarine landslides can generate local tsunamis posing a hazard to human lives and coastal facilities. Two major related problems are: (i) quantitative estimation of tsunami hazard and (ii) early detection of the most dangerous landslides. This thesis focuses on both those issues by providing …

Long Waves In Channels Of Non-Uniform Cross-Section
… model equations for calculating long waves (e.g. tsunamis, tides or flood) propagation in fjord or river, which could have compelling applications in the field of hydraulics and coastal engineering. As an example, for long distance propagation of landslide tsunami in fjords, travel-times and …
