Tsunami hazard assessment on the Mediterranean coast of Egypt
Известия РАН. Физика атмосферы и океана. 2019. Т. 55. № 5. С. 462–469.
Tsunami forecast possibilities for areas with a small base of historical tsunamis have been discussed
using the Probabilistic Tsunami Hazard Assessment (PTHA) method, which is based on a statistical analysis
of a sufficiently large number of real and predictive earthquakes with a subsequent calculation of possible tsunami
waves. This method has been used for a long-term tsunami hazard assessment on the Mediterranean
coast of Egypt. The predicted wave heights have been shown to vary along the coastline due to the inhomogeneity
of the coastal topography and specific features of the tsunami radiation pattern in the sea. The predicted
wave heights for 1000 years vary in the range between 0.8 and 3.4 m.

The carbon balance of an ecosystem is the difference between Gross Primary Productivity (GPP) and Ecosystem Respiration (Reco) as expressed by Net Ecosystem Exchange (NEE). While remote sensing retrievals of GPP have reached maturity, Reco estimation remains underexplored and ultimately cast bias on NEE. Here we present an end-to-end multi-scale analysis of the mechanism of ...

Legacy soil maps remain essential for national land-use planning. However, their thematic accuracy and spatial resolution are often insufficient for contemporary applications requiring reliable estimates. This study presents a digital soil-mapping approach to update legacy soil information without extensive field sampling, demonstrated for arable lands in the Republic of Tatarstan (4.5 million ha). The proposed ...

The historical timeline of urban development profoundly shapes the contemporary form and functionality of cities. Traditionally, cities were planned with limited consideration for the promotion of a healthy urban environment. Using Nizhny Novgorod, Russia, a city that has evolved from a medieval market town to an industrial centre and later into a multifunctional city with ...

On July 29, 2025, a strong earthquake near Kamchatka (Russia) generated a tsunami that spread across the entire
Pacific Ocean. The tsunami had its strongest impact on the coast of the North Kuril Islands (Paramushir and Shumshu), causing significant destruction. During the first days after the earthquake, a field survey of tsunami traces on these islands was conducted in the area ...

An observed 20-30% increase in forest net ecosystem exchange (NEE) on partly cloudy days is often attributed to there being more uniform canopy illumination by diffuse radiation when clouds are present. However, the sky on such days is typically populated by fair-weather cumulus clouds, bringing dynamically changing shadow-to-light conditions on the order of minutes to ...

In many quantum applications it is important to know whether or not a Bell nonlocal two-qudit state exhibits its nonlocality under correlation scenarios with some given numbers S1,S2≥1 of generalized quantum measurements at two sites. In the present article, we find analytically a new general locality condition sufficient for a nonseparable Werner state with a ...

Chow polylogarithms are some special functions arising in explicit description of the Beilinson regulator map. The most interesting functional equation for this function reflects its vanishing on the boundary in the Bloch's cycle complex. We show that this functional equation formally follows from more simple ones, namely skew-symmetry, functoriality and multiplicativity.
To prove this, we study ...

This paper investigates the problem of statistical inference for a mixture distribution consisting of a discrete and a continuous component, with a particular focus on the class of rational-infinitely divisible distributions. We consider non-parametric estimation of both components of the mixture as well as the quasi-L{é}vy measure, assuming that the mixture belongs to the class ...

Unlike most other brachiopods, craniiforms lack a prominent pedicle, cement to a hard substrate by their ventral valve, and thereby can be easily distinguished in paleontological materials.

Although Brachiopoda represent a relatively small phylum, they exhibit significant morphological diversity. One of the central issues in understanding the evolution of the ancestral brachiopod body plan pertains to the homologies among body compartments across the different brachiopod subphyla: Craniiformea, Linguliformea, and Rhynchonelliformea. In this context, the pedicle stands out as one of the most ...

In this paper, we construct strong approximations for discrete-time Markov chains weakly converging to continuous diffusion processes, as well as for their perturbed counterparts. Under the assumption of bounded coefficients, we construct closely coupled versions of these processes on a shared probability space. In particular, for both non-degenerate and degenerate cases, we maximize the probability ...

As a frequent extreme event under global climate change, drought significantly threatens the net primary productivity (NPP) of terrestrial ecosystems. Although numerous studies have reported drought-induced declines in NPP, the hydroclimatic mechanisms behind remain insufficiently understood.
