SCIENCE OF TSUNAMI HAZARDS
Welcome
to the Web Site of the TSUNAMI SOCIETY and its electronic, international
journal "SCIENCE OF TSUNAMI HAZARDS" (STH) - published
to disseminate the results of applied and theoretical research on tsunamis and to increase knowledge about their
hazards.
The links below and on the left provide information about the Tsunami Society,
on past and future activities and symposiums, on membership, and
directions for the submission of relevant scientific papers
pertaining to tsunami hazards for publication in
"Science of Tsunami Hazards"-
"Science of Tsunami Hazards" is a unique, peer-reviewed journal which has been published continuously without interruption since 1982, initially in print but subsequently in both electronic and printed formats.
Also, SCIENCE OF TSUNAMI HAZARDS has been accepted for inclusion in the prestigious international academic journal database DOAJ maintained by the University of Lund in Sweden with the support of the European Union.
Additionally, SPARC Europe and DOAJ have entered an agreement about introducing a certification scheme for Open Access journals, the SPARC Europe Seal for Open Access Journals. - for which SCIENCE OF TSUNAMI HAZARDS is now eligible.
Past issues of the journal up to 2007, in electronic format, have been archived at the Los Alamos National Laboratory's electronic database. All issues past and present are also archived at the U.S Library of Congress, as well as at the present website. SCIENCE OF TSUNAMI HAZARDS WILL ALSO BE PRESERVED AND ARCHIVED AT THE NATIONAL LIBRARY, HAGUE, NETHERLANDS http://www.kb.nl/e-Depot
