The Fourteenth International Tsunami Symposium held from 31 July to
3 August 1989 in Novosibirsk, U.S.S.R., was sponsored by the
International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics. Sixty-five
scientists from 13 countries met to exchange information on recent
advances in tsunami research. The Symposium was a great success due
to the enthusiasm of the participants, the quality of research
presented, and the great organization provided by the Soviet hosts.
Teams of dedicated workers, under the fine leadership of
Academician A. S. Alexseev and Dr V. K. Gusiakov, blended social
and scientific activities in a memorable fashion. The 62
presentations of the Symposium were divided into six areas of
research: generation (7), propagation (12), coastal effects (10),
observations (11), seismics and tectonics (10), and hazard
mitigation (12). A summary of the research presented appears as the
first article in this special issue. Following the Symposium, a
team of session chairmen nominated 20 of these oral presentations
to be published in a special issue devoted to the International
Tsunami Symposium.
