    Description: En el año 2002, el entonces Centro de Control de Contaminación del Pacífico (CCCP) publicó el libro titulado COMPILACIÓN OCEANOGRÁFICA DE LA CUENCA PACÍFICA COLOMBIANA, lo que sería un referente bibliográfico de vital importancia para la caracterización de las zonas marino-costeras del Pacífico colombiano, abarcando un total de cinco capítulos en temas tan variados como las particularidades geográficas de la Cuenca Pacífica Colombiana (CPC) y su investigación oceanográfica, la búsqueda de la relación entre las condiciones oceanográficas de la Cuenca y el ciclo de El Niño Oscilación del Sur (ENOS), además del plan científico del grupo de investigación en oceanografía para el periodo 2001-2010. Han transcurrido 18 largos años desde entonces, y la comunidad científica marina del país, así como la Autoridad Marítima colombiana y el gremio marítimo requieren no solo una actualización de dichas líneas de investigación, sino también mayor cantidad y mejor nivel de detalle en la información disponible para la toma de decisiones con base en el rigor técnico; así como el claro y amplio soporte de conocimiento del medio en el que se desenvuelven para el diario devenir en sus actividades en el mar y en la costa, teniendo en cuenta que las aguas del gran Pacífico no representan la frontera que separa, sino el puente que une a Colombia y los países de Oceanía y del sudeste asiático, considerada como la zona con los mercados de mayor proyección del mundo. Esta es una más de las principales razones, sumada a las necesidades de desarrollo y las aspiraciones nacionales de consolidar factores de seguridad multidimensional y de presencia estatal en las áreas de frontera, para aprovechar las múltiples potencialidades que ofrece el vasto océano Pacífico para una nación en desarrollo, y con la aspiración nacional de llegar a ser una potencia media regional influyente como lo es Colombia. Por lo anterior, el mismo CCCP, ahora denominado Centro de Investigaciones Oceanográficas e Hidrográficas del Pacífico, presenta con orgullo el resultado de un esfuerzo por satisfacer estos requerimientos a través de la publicación del título COMPILACIÓN OCEANOGRÁFICA DEL PACÍFICO COLOMBIANO II, el cual consta de siete capítulos que garantizan la continuidad en los anteriores temas y proporciona algunos nuevos, complementando y ampliando la información ofrecida por la primera edición. Dentro de estas líneas de investigación fueron incluidas las particularidades geográficas y geomorfología de la CPC, su meteorología, la investigación oceanográfica en la Cuenca e influencia de los eventos ENOS, las condiciones de oleaje en el Pacífico colombiano, la variabilidad del nivel del mar, la amenaza por tsunami en la CPC y, finalmente, las tendencias en la biogeoquímica del océano Pacífico Oriental Tropical y Sureste bajo diferentes escenarios de cambio climático. Bienvenidos entonces a una ventana más del conocimiento sobre nuestra Cuenca Pacífica Colombiana, desde donde contribuimos a la “consolidación de Colombia como país marítimo” y aportamos nuestro pequeño pero representativo grano de arena a la defensa del enorme, hermoso e imponente azul de la bandera. El reconocimiento de los espacios marítimos para el desarrollo de un país es de vital importancia. Desde su exploración oceánica y costera, la hidrografía ha representado el conocimiento científico sobre el territorio marítimo colombiano y ha brindado información, instrumentos y herramientas para una mejor compresión y desarrollo de las actividades marítimas en el país. La producción de la cartografía náutica para asegurar las rutas marítimas y el comercio internacional de la nación es un aspecto fundamental, que a su vez ha cumplido un papel importante en el reconocimiento de las profundidades y el descubrimiento de riquezas económicas y culturales en los fondos oceánicos, además de aportar seguridad en la navegación por el espacio marítimo colombiano y un mejor conocimiento de nuestros litorales y sus potencialidades. La hidrografía entonces ha desempeñado eficientemente el rol de fortalecer y desarrollar las riquezas que se encuentran en nuestras aguas jurisdiccionales, y ha sido la disciplina científica que ha aportado al reconocimiento de los territorios costeros y oceánicos, y, consecutivamente, al avance en el desarrollo de la infraestructura marítima para el país. Objetivos que podemos hallar desde sus comienzos y que fueron evidenciados y visibilizados a lo largo de su labor y trabajo en los espacios y frentes marinos, que le han permitido a la Autoridad Marítima Colombiana, a través de un interés nacional y una visión internacional, mantener una navegación segura que haga parte del impulso y progreso económico y nacional, en contribución paralela a los objetivos de desarrollo sostenible de la Organización de las Naciones Unidas.

    Description: EU project ASTARTE aims at developing a higher level of tsunami hazard assessment in the North East Atlantic, Mediterranean and Connected seas (NEAM) region by a combination of field work, experimental work, numerical modeling and technical development. The project is a cooperative work of 26 institutes from 16 countries and links together the description of past tsunamigenic events, the identification and characterization of tsunami sources, the calculation of the impact of such events, and the development of adequate resilience and risks mitigation strategies (www.astarte.eu). Within ASTARTE two web-based data bases on Paleotsunami and Mass Transport Deposits in the NEAM areas were created with the purpose to be the future information repositories for tsunami research in Europe.The aim is to integrate every existing official scientific reports and peer reviewed papers on these topics and update on new entries every 6-12 months, hosting information and detailed data, that are crucial e.g for tsunami modeling. A relational database managed by ArcGIS for Desktop 10.x software has been implemented. One of the final goals of the project is the public sharing of the archived datasets through a web-based map service that will allow visualizing, querying, analyzing, and interpreting all datasets. The interactive map service will be hosted by ArcGIS Online and will deploy the cloud capabilities of the portal. Any interested users will be able to access the online GIS resources through any Internet browser or specific apps that run on desktop machines, smartphones, or tablets and will be able to use the analytical tools, key tasks, and workflows of the service.We will present the data bases structure and topics as well as their ArcGIS Online version. The research leading to these results has received funding from the European Union’s Seventh Framework Programme (FP7/2007-2013) under grant agreement n 603839 (Project ASTARTE - Assessment, Strategy and Risk Reduction for Tsunamis in Europe).

    Keywords: multihazard simulations ; Tsunami
    Description / Table of Contents: This issue contains 16 papers, presenting work on tsunami hazards, earthquakes, and related computational infrastructure. The integration of multihazard simulations and remotely sensed observations is providing enormous benefits to earthquake and tsunami research. Earthquakes cause damage, but also generate tsunamis, which create additional damage. Remotely sensed observations coupled with geologic field measurements and simulations contribute to our understanding of earthquake processes, which is necessary for mitigating loss of life and property from these damaging events. This book focuses on assimilation of remotely sensed observations to advance multihazards simulation. This capability provides a powerful virtual laboratory to probe earthquake behavior and the earthquake cycle. Hence, it offers a new opportunity to gain understanding of the earthquake nucleation process, precursory phenomena, and space-time seismicity patterns needed for breakthrough advances in earthquake forecasting and hazard quantification.

    Keywords: Tsunami ; Indian Ocean
    Description / Table of Contents: Ten years ago, on December 26, 2004, one of the world’s most destructive natural disasters occurred. A magnitude Mw 9.1 earthquake (third strongest ever instrumentally recorded) generated a global tsunami that killed about 230,000 people along the coasts of 14 countries in the Indian Ocean and propagated as far as the North Pacific and North Atlantic Oceans. Since then, various countries from around the globe contributed major funding to tsunami research and mitigation, enabling the installation of hundreds of new high-precision instruments, the development of new technology and the establishment of more modern communication systems. As a result, incredible progress has been achieved in tsunami research and operation during the ten years after the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami. The papers presented in this second of two special volumes of Pure and Applied Geophysics reflect the state of tsunami science during this time, including two papers devoted to global observations. Five papers provide new findings specifically in the Indian Ocean. Eight papers cover Pacific Ocean studies, focusing mainly on the 2011 Tohoku earthquake and tsunami. Remaining papers in the volume describe studies in the Atlantic and Mediterranean and general tsunami source studies. The volume is of interest to scientists and practitioners involved in all aspects of tsunamis from earthquake source processes to transoceanic wave propagation and coastal impacts. Postgraduate students in geophysics, oceanography and coastal engineering – as well as students in the broader geosciences, civil and environmental engineering – will also find the book to be a valuable resource, as it combines recent case studies with advances in tsunami science and natural hazards mitigation.

    Keywords: Tsunami ; Pacific Ocean
    Description / Table of Contents: The 2011 Tohoku earthquake generated a catastrophic tsunami that killed nearly 20,000 people along the coast of Japan and caused the nuclear disaster at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant. The tsunami propagated throughout the Pacific Ocean and also affected many other countries, including Russia, the USA, New Zealand, French Polynesia and Chile, demonstrating once again the terrible threat that tsunami waves pose for Pacific countries and the need for basin-wide international scientific collaboration. Following a brief introduction, this volume presents 21 scientific papers, including 12 on aspects of the 2011 Tohoku event. A first group of papers provides detailed field survey results from the coasts of Japan and Russia and examines the wave dynamics on the basis of these surveys, the source mechanism of the earthquake, and the far-field impacts of the Tohoku tsunami. The second group reports on the 2012 tsunamis in El Salvador, the Philippines, off the east coast of Honshu and the landmark Haida Gwaii event off the west coast of British Columbia, Canada, while the papers in a third set discuss a number of remaining challenging questions in tsunami science and warning. The volume will be of interest to scientists and practitioners involved in all aspects of tsunamis from earthquake source processes to transoceanic wave propagation and coastal impacts. Postgraduate students in geophysics, oceanography and coastal engineering – as well as those in the broader geosciences, civil and environmental engineering – will also find the book a valuable resource, as it combines recent case studies with the latest advances in tsunami science and natural hazards mitigation.

    Description / Table of Contents: This is the first volume of a collection of essays focusing on progress in tsunami science since the great tsunami of 26 December. A magnitude Mw 9.1 earthquake (third strongest ever instrumentally recorded) generated a global tsunami that killed about 230,000 people along the coasts of 14 countries in the Indian Ocean and propagated as far as the North Pacific and North Atlantic. Since then, various countries from around the globe contributed major funding to tsunami research and mitigation, enabling the installation of hundreds of new high-precision instruments, the development of new technology and the establishment of more modern communication systems. As a result, incredible progress has been achieved in tsunami research and operation during the ten years after the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami. The papers presented in this first of two special volumes of Pure and Applied Geophysics reflect the state of tsunami science during this time. Eight papers are related to case studies highlighting regional hazards around the globe, while five papers record progress in tsunami warning systems. Benchmark studies that describe the accuracy of numerical models for tsunami impact, as well as a variety of inundation and generation studies, are presented by 7 additional papers.

    Description: The 2011 Tohoku-oki (Mw 9.1) earthquake is so far the best-observed megathrust rupture, which allowed the collection of unprecedented offshore data. The joint inversion of tsunami waveforms (DART buoys, bottom pressure sensors, coastal wave gauges, and GPS-buoys) and static geodetic data (onshore GPS, seafloor displacements obtained by a GPS/acoustic combination technique), allows us to retrieve the slip distribution on a non-planar fault. We show that the inclusion of near-source data is necessary to image the details of slip pattern (maximum slip ,48 m, up to ,35 m close to the Japan trench), which generated the large and shallow seafloor coseismic deformations and the devastating inundation of the Japanese coast. We investigate the relation between the spatial distribution of previously inferred interseismic coupling and coseismic slip and we highlight the importance of seafloor geodetic measurements to constrain the interseismic coupling, which is one of the key-elements for long-term earthquake and tsunami hazard assessment.

    Keywords: Tsunami ; Natural Hazards
    Description / Table of Contents: The tsunami from the 1960 Chilean earthquake affected the entire Pacific Ocean and motivated the international coordination of tsunami research and warning systems around the Pacific. However, the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami affected the entire world, and reminded that tsunamis are not a local or regional problem but a global issue. This volume contains 15 papers, mostly presented at the 24th International Tsunami Symposium held on 14-16 July 2009 in Novosibirsk, Russia. They reflect the current state of tsunami science, including studies of recent tsunamis, tsunami statistics and warning, and modeling tsunami runup and inundation.

    Description: The MW 8.8 mega-thrust earthquake and tsunami that occurred on February 27, 2010, offshore Maule region, Chile, was not unexpected. A clearly identified seismic gap existed in an area where tectonic loading has been accumulating since the great 1835 earthquake experienced and described by Darwin during the voyage of the Beagle. Here we jointly invert tsunami and geodetic data (InSAR, GPS, land-level changes), to derive a robust model for the co-seismic slip distribution and induced co-seismic stress changes, and compare them to past earthquakes and the pre-seismic locking distribution. We aim to assess if the Maule earthquake has filled the Darwin gap, decreasing the probability of a future shock . We find that the main slip patch is located to the north of the gap, overlapping the rupture zone of the MW 8.0 1928 earthquake, and that a secondary concentration of slip occurred to the south; the Darwin gap was only partially filled and a zone of high pre-seismic locking remains unbroken. This observation is not consistent with the assumption that distributions of seismic rupture might be correlated with pre-seismic locking, potentially allowing the anticipation of slip distributions in seismic gaps. Moreover, increased stress on this unbroken patch might have increased the probability of another major to great earthquake there in the near future.

    Description / Table of Contents: Tsunamis like the Indian Ocean tsunami caused by the Sumatra-Andaman earthquake in 2004 or the Chilean earthquake in the Pacific Ocean in 1960 motivate international collaborations for the development of tsunami warning systems. Since 1960 the Tsunami Commission, established by the International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics, has been holding a biannual International Tsunami Symposium (ITS). This volume contains 20 contributions of leading scientists mostly presented at the 22nd International Tsunami Symposium held in summer 2005 in Greece. Consolidated findings based on hydrophone records, seismometer readings, and tide gauges are presented. Reports of post-tsunami surveys and numerical simulations for tsunamis such as the 2004 Indian Ocean event, as well as geological studies of tsunamis in Japan, Central and North America are given. Probabilistic tsunami hazard analysis and tsunami warning systems, among others, are described as are methods to predict tsunamis and mitigate their hazards.
