Journal of Earthquake and Tsunami provides a common forum for scientists and engineers working in the areas of earthquakes and tsunamis to communicate and interact with one another and thereby enhance the opportunities for such cross-fertilization of ideas. The Journal publishes original papers pertaining to state-of-the-art research and development in Geological and Seismological Setting; Ground Motion, Site and Building Response; Tsunami Generation, Propagation, Damage and Mitigation, as well as Education and Risk Management following an earthquake or a tsunami. We welcome papers in the following categories: Geological and Seismological Aspects Tectonics: (Geology - earth processes) Fault processes and earthquake generation: seismology (earthquake processes) Earthquake wave propagation: geophysics Remote sensing Earthquake Engineering Geotechnical hazards and response Effects on buildings and structures Risk analysis and management Retrofitting and remediation Education and awareness Material Behaviour Soil Reinforced concrete Steel Tsunamis Tsunamigenic sources Tsunami propagation: Physical oceanography Run-up and damage: wave hydraulics.
