Abstract:Makran subduction zone, along the southern coasts of Iran and Pakistan has a wide potential seismogenic zone and may be capable of generating large magnitude (M~9) tsunamigenic earthquakes. Considering ambiguities exist in tsunamigenic source characterization for subduction megathrusts like Makran, where detailed geologic, seismic, and geodetic data are insufficient, the probabilistic tsunami hazard analysis (PTHA) is the most prevalent approach to handle uncertainties and estimate more reliable tsunami hazard… Show more
