19 wrz 2023 · On December 26, 2004 an undersea earthquake, with a 9.1 magnitude rating, hit just off the coast of the Indonesian Island Sumatra (Britannica, 2023). Roughly 18 miles below the ocean floor along a reverse fault in the Sunda trench where the Indian plate subducts, or moves below, the Burma plate, the length of the rupture was roughly 800 miles, ...
26 gru 2004 · Map showing aftershock locations for the first 13 weeks after the 26 December 2004 earthquake from the NEIC (yellow dots, with radii proportional to seismic magnitude).
Red star shows the epicentre of the 2004 earthquake and the brown shaded region shows the rupture zone. The proximal toe of the Bassein slide is marked by a solid black line and the distal toe by...
2 mar 2006 · We examined satellite images of the Andaman and Nicobar islands and northwestern Sumatra to identify areas where reef or land exposure changed following the earthquake. Satellite images...
The Sunda Trench is a subduction zone extending in an arch from the Northwestern tip of Sumatra to Flores in Eastern Indonesia. A strong earthquake in this zone can generate a tsunami that arrives at the coast within 20 minutes, leaving little time for issuing an early warning.
The California Geological Survey’s Earthquake Hazards Zone Application (EQ Zapp) is an interactive map that details the risk of earthquakes and related hazards for different areas of the state. The map is searchable by address, and it maps three main hazard zones: Fault zones; Landslide zones; Liquefaction zones
earthquake surfaces are located under the Sunda Trench and Sunda Island Arc (Nalbant et al., 2005) which ultimately affect the geomorphological shape of the seafloor (Nurwihastuti et al., 2014).
