A national tsunami hazard assessment for Indonesia

摘要: This document presents the findings of a National Tsunami Hazard Assessment for Indonesia. The assessment was supported by the Indonesian National Disaster Management Agency (BNPB) and the Australian Agency for International Development (AusAID) through the Australia-Indonesia Facility for Disaster Reduction (AIFDR). It represents Indonesia’s most advanced and rigorous assessment of tsunami hazard and was developed as a collaborative effort between Indonesian and Australian scientists representing Institut Teknologi Bandung (ITB), the Indonesian Institute of Science (LIPI), the Agency for the Assessment and Application of Technology (BPPT), the Geological Agency, the Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Agency (BMKG), the Tsunami and Disaster Mitigation Research Centre at Syiah Kuala University (TDMRC) and Geoscience Australia (GA). The tsunami hazard maps are based on a probabilistic tsunami hazard assessment methodology, which allows the chance of tsunami of different heights to be estimated.
