Seismotectonics Of The Andaman-Nicobar Plate Boundary And Evaluation Of 2004 Deformational And Depositional Features Towards Assessing Past Tsunamigenic Earthquakes

Seismotectonics Of The Andaman-Nicobar Plate Boundary And Evaluation Of 2004 Deformational And Depositional Features Towards Assessing Past Tsunamigenic Earthquakes

Tsunami hazards were greatly underestimated along the coasts of countries bordering the northeastern Indian Ocean until the occurrence of the 26 December 2004, Mw 9.2 earthquake and its ensuing tsunami. Sourced off the coast of northern Sumatra, on the plate boundary between the Indo-Australian and...
