abstract = {A modelling approach to understand the tsunamigenic
potentiality of submarine landslides will provide new
perspectives on tsunami hazard threat, mostly in polar margins
where global climatic change and its related ocean
warming may induce future landslides. Here, we use the LML-
HySEA (Landslide Multilayer Hyperbolic Systems and
Efficient Algorithms) numerical model, including wave dispersion,
to provide new insights into factors controlling the
tsunami characteristics triggered by the Storfjorden LS-1
landslide (southwestern Svalbard). Tsunami waves, determined
mainly by the sliding mechanism and the bathymetry,
consist of two initial wave dipoles, with troughs to the northeast
(Spitsbergen and towards the continent) and crests to the
south (seawards) and southwest (Bear Island), reaching more
than 3m of amplitude above the landslide and finally merging
into a single wave dipole. The tsunami wave propagation
and its coastal impact are governed by the Storfjorden
and Kveithola glacial troughs and by the bordering Spitsbergen
Bank, which shape the continental shelf. This local
bathymetry controls the direction of propagation with a crescent
shape front, in plan view, and is responsible for shoaling
effects of amplitude values (4.2m in trough to 4.3m in crest),
amplification (3.7m in trough to 4m in crest) and diffraction
of the tsunami waves, as well as influencing their coastal impact
times.},
