In July 2010 Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences (NHESS), an international and interdisciplinary journal dealing with natural hazards research started the publication of a  special web page on “New developments in tsunami science: from hazard to risk”. This continuously updated web page makes available research articles, research and technical notes, book reviews, brief communications, letters and comments on papers on subjects related to tsunami science.

The web page is available at the web address http://www.nat-hazards-earth-syst-sci.net/special_issue117.html. Interesting articles that are available on this web page  include among others:

• Applying and validating the PTVA-3 Model at the Aeolian Islands, Italy: assessment of the vulnerability of buildings to tsunamis
• The development and implementation of a real-time meteotsunami warning network for the Adriatic Sea
• Tsunami hazard at the Western Mediterranean Spanish coast from seismic sources
• Generating tsunami risk knowledge at community level as a base for planning and implementation of risk reduction strategies
• Tsunami hazard in the Black Sea and the Azov Sea: a new tsunami catalogue
• Tsunami hazard for the city of Catania, eastern Sicily, Italy, assessed by means of Worst-case Credible Tsunami Scenario Analysis (WCTSA)
