This issue contains 16 papers, presenting work on tsunami hazards,
earthquakes, and related computational infrastructure. The
integration of multihazard simulations and remotely sensed
observations is providing enormous benefits to earthquake and
tsunami research. Earthquakes cause damage, but also generate
tsunamis, which create additional damage. Remotely sensed
observations coupled with geologic field measurements and
simulations contribute to our understanding of earthquake
processes, which is necessary for mitigating loss of life and
property from these damaging events. This book focuses on
assimilation of remotely sensed observations to advance
multihazards simulation. This capability provides a powerful
virtual laboratory to probe earthquake behavior and the earthquake
cycle. Hence, it offers a new opportunity to gain understanding of
the earthquake nucleation process, precursory phenomena, and
space-time seismicity patterns needed for breakthrough advances in
earthquake forecasting and hazard quantification.
