Entry: volcanic explosion induced tsunami

URI: https://registry.epos-eu.org/ncl/FAIR-Incubator/tcs-TSU/90

Immediately after an underwater explosion, the development of a water crater might occur, depending on the water depth and on the explosion's energy. Then, the crater undergoes expansion along its rim, and rise and gravitational collapse of the water dome. This sequence of events creates two successive bores followed by a number of smaller undulations propagating radially from the source. The initial sea surface displacement, i.e. the tsunami initial condition, can be estimated in a simplified way as a function of the explosion's energy at a given depth. Tipically, tsunamis generated by underwater explosions exhibit short period and great dispersion (see e.g. Paris, 2015; Ulvrova et al., 2016).
