ChEESE-PTF Workflow for Probabilistic Tsunami Forecasting v0.1

Description

ChEESE-PTF

PROBABILISTIC TSUNAMI FORECASTING (PTF) FOR EARLY WARNING AND RAPID POST EVENT ASSESSMENT

This workflow provides rapid probabilistic forecasting of tsunami inundation, following an earthquake offshore or close to the coast, before it actually occurs or before tsunami observations are available. For near-field tsunami early warning (EW) purposes, the large uncertainty about earthquake location and magnitude, as available in the first minutes, are reflected in forecasting uncertainty. For the purpose of supporting rapid post-disaster intervention, for which more time is available, additional information on tsunami source and tsunami waves recorded in the subsequent phases can be exploited to eventually narrow down the tsunami forecast uncertainty. The workflow also provides an early estimate of the earthquake parameters with their uncertainty when they are not yet available, as a by-product.
