2018 Australian Probabilistic Tsunami Hazard Assessment Collection

Created 16/10/2025

Updated 16/10/2025

PTHA18 estimates the frequency with which tsunamis of any given size occur in deep waters around the Australian coastline. To do this it simulates hundreds of thousands of possible tsunami scenarios from key earthquake sources in the Pacific and Indian Oceans, and models the frequency with which these occur.
