A magnitude 7.6-7.7 earthquake struck near the coast of western Mexico on 19 September 2022. A tsunami about 1.75 m (5.7 ft) high was reported near the epicentre. [211] The tsunami was detected as far away as Ecuador, where tsunami waves as high as 12 cm (4.7 in) were observed. [212] 2023 Greenland 2023 Greenland landslide: Landslide
September 12, 2024 at 11:45 PM. ... Svennevig from the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland said that this was the first recorded landslide and tsunami in eastern Greenland.
It started with a melting glacier that set off a landslide, which triggered a tsunami. Then the Earth began to shake A landslide triggered a 650-foot mega-tsunami in Greenland.
[3] [4] [5] Svennevig et al. (2024) recreated the dynamics of the landslide using the available seismic data and estimate it achieved a peak velocity of 42 meteres per second. [5] The initial failure triggering the landslide was 150 m thick, 480 m wide and 600 m long, made of a large block of metamorphic rock. [5]
