Globally, instrumentally based assessments of tsunamigenic potential of subduction zones
have underestimated the magnitude and frequency of great events because of their short …

This study develops a novel computational framework to carry out probabilistic tsunami
hazard assessment for the Pacific coast of Mexico. The new approach enables the …

Repeating large earthquakes (M≥ 7), waveforms for which are nearly identical, have been
identified only on the Mexican subduction thrust near Acapulco. These earthquakes …

Abstract The 8 September 2017 M8. 2 Tehuantepec, Mexico, earthquake ruptured an~ 150‐
km‐long high‐angle normal fault below the subduction zone megathrust. A tsunami was …

The historical record of large subduction earthquakes in Guerrero, Mexico, reveals the
existence of an∼ 230‐km length segment below the coast where no major rupture has …

This study conducts a probabilistic tsunami hazard assessment (PTHA) and compares two
approaches to representing earthquake source variability in the PTHA. The target region is …

Large earthquakes are generally generated in the contact zone between tectonic plates,
with the width of the interplate contact zone controlling the maximum earthquake size. In this …

Late Holocene tectonic land-level changes and tsunamis at Mitla lagoon, Guerrero, Mexico
Page 1 Geofísica Internacional 48 (2), 195-209 (2009) 195 Late Holocene tectonic land-level …

Research on extreme wave events such as tsunamis using the geological record in areas of
infrequent and or small magnitude earthquakes can aid in extending the long-term history …

An analysis of local and regional data produced by the shallow, thrust Ometepec-Pinotepa
Nacional earthquake (M w 7.5) of 20 March 2012 shows that it nucleated at 16.254° N …
