Simulation with the Mirone application for the construction of marine mechanical waves generated by possible seismic events in the territory of the Adriatic and Ionian seas

Abstract

In this study, we will present the practical development of some simulations that we have done with the Mirone program for the generation of tsunami waves. These simulations are taken into account for real seismic events that have occurred in the Adriatic and Ionian seas throughout history and the data that have been reported for certain areas. In practical simulations with applications, we have the opportunity to see what is actually expected to happen in such events. We have presented several scenarios and we have also analyzed all the results that we have derived from the calculations and simulations made. We have taken risk assessment scenarios in both our seas and we have also given the effects they will have on the ecology of coastal areas and underwater ecology. In the tectonic origin risk assessment scenario in the Adriatic and Ionian seas, we study the tsunami risk generated by faults. Despite the fact that most of the seismic tsunamis are generated in the oceans as well as in the basins of small seas such as the Adriatic and the Ionian, where these phenomena can occur. A scenario-based method was used to provide a tsunami hazard assessment for the first time in this region.
