Large-scale Experiments of Tsunamis Generated by Iceberg Calving (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Heller, V., Attili, T., Chen, F., Brühl, M., Gabl, R., & Fuchs, H. (2019, September). Large-scale Experiments of Tsunamis Generated by Iceberg Calving. Presented at 38th IAHR World Congress, Panama City

Iceberg calving at outlet glaciers contributes to global sea-level rise in the context of climate change. This study investigates tsunamis generated by iceberg calving, so-called iceberg-tsunamis. Such tsunamis reached amplitudes of 50 m in the recen... Read More about Large-scale Experiments of Tsunamis Generated by Iceberg Calving.

Numerical modelling of landslide-tsunami propagation in a wide range of idealised water body geometries (2019)

© 2019 Elsevier B.V. Large landslide-tsunamis are caused by mass movements such as landslides or rock falls impacting into a water body. Research of these phenomena is essentially based on the two idealised water body geometries (i) wave flume (2D, l...
