Researchers unveil the mechanisms for local amplification of 2024 tsunamis in Iida Bay, Japan

In 2024, a 7.5 magnitude earthquake struck the Noto Peninsula in Japan on New Year s Day, causing strong shaking, landslides, fire, liquefaction, land uplift, and devastating tsunamis. Ishikawa Prefecture, the hardest hit area, saw at least 241 fatalities, and about 75,187 houses damaged. Although the Noto Peninsula has experienced frequent earthquakes and tsunamis in the past, the 2024 tsunamis were different.
