emtc_rel |
Small integer |
is a parameter indicating the quality of the data. For each event this parameter was assigned based on the trustworthiness of the information related to the generating cause, the tsunami description accuracy and also on the availability of coeval bibliographical sources. It ranges from 0 to 4: 0= very improbable tsunami; 1= improbable tsunami; 2= questionable tsunami; 3= probable tsunami; 4= definite tsunami. |
EMTC v2.0 |
emtc_cause |
Short text, 2 characters |
a two-letters code specifying the cause of the tsunami. When the tsunami is directly or indirectly determined by an earthquake, the letter E is used: ER (submarine earthquake), EA (earthquake in land), EL (earthquake landslide -when the earthquake triggered a landslide), ES (earthquake marine slide - when the earthquake triggered a submarine slide). Analogously, letter V is used when the tsunami is directly or indirectly related to volcanic activity: VO (submarine eruption), VA (volcano associated – when the volcano is close to the coast), VL (volcanic landslide – subaerial avalanches on the volcano flanks), VS (volcanic marine slide – submarine avalanches on the volcano flanks). When the tsunami is caused by a gravitational instability not amenable to earthquakes or volcanic activity, the letter G is used: GL (gravitational landslide), GS (gravitational marine slide), GA (gravitational snow avalanche). The code UN (unknown cause) is used when the tsunami cause is unknown. |

emtc_int_amb |
Small integer |
the tsunami intensity is attributed on the basis of the six-degree Sieberg-Ambraseys scale (Ambraseys, 1962). 1= very light, 2= light, 3= rather strong, 4= strong, 5= very strong, 6= disastrous. |
EMTC v2.0 |
emtc_int_papa |
Short text |
the tsunami intensity is attributed also on the twelve-degree Papadopoulos and Imamura (2001) scale. I= not felt, II= scarcely felt, III= weak, IV= largely observed, V= strong, VI= slightly damaging, VII= damaging, VIII= heavily damaging, IX= destructive, X= very destructive, XI= devastating, XII= completely devastating. |
