    • A first estimation of Tsunami Hazard of the Caribbean Coast of Costa Rica from Local and Distant Seismogenic Sources 

      Chacon-Barrantes, Silvia; Murillo Gutiérrez, Anthony; Rivera, Fabio (IV Assembly of the Latin American and Caribbean Seismological Commission, LACSC 2022, 2022-10-04)
      Costa Rica has experienced 41 tsunamis since 1746, 36 of them at the Pacific coast and only 5 at the Caribbean coast. However, the oldest record belongs to the Caribbean coast, as well as the only tsunami that has caused ...

    • Advances in tsunami preparedness at the beginning of the Ocean Decade: the Costa Rica case 

      Chacon-Barrantes, Silvia; Murillo Gutiérrez, Anthony; Rivera, Fabio; Aliaga Rossel, Bernardo (Instituto Oceanográfico da Universidade de São Paulo, 2022-04-04)
      Following the 2004 Indian Ocean and the 2011 Tohoku earthquakes and tsunamis, there has been steady progress in tsunami science and preparedness worldwide. Currently, there are four Tsunami Warning and Mitigation Systems ...

    • Determinación de la Altura dinámica a partir de perfiles de temperatura 

      Brenes, C. L.; Coen, J. E. (Universidad Nacional (Costa Rica), 1986-01-01)
      La altura dinámica se calcula solo a partir de los datos de temperatura mediante el uso de una relación TS media para proporcionar valores de salinidad. El método se ha aplicado a datos de cruceros: EASTROPIC (1967) y ...

    • Effectiveness of N-waves for predicting morphological changes due to tsunamis 

      Chacon-Barrantes, Silvia (Elsevier, 2018)
      The research on morphological changes caused by tsunamis has increased considerably in the last few years, yet the processes behind this phenomenon are still not fully understood. This paper analyzes and compares numerical ...

    • M2 Currents And Residual Flow In The Gulf Of California 

      Quirós, Guillermo; Badan - Dangon, Antoine; Ripa, Pedro (Elsevier, 1992)
      The full nonlinear, vertically-averaged equations of motion are time integrated through a finite difference scheme on a regular grid that reproduces the topography of the Gulf of Califor nia with a mesh size of 14 ...
