| Zusammenfassung |
| We apply a new
tsunami vulnerability assessment method to two coastal villages in the
Gulf of Corinth, Greece using the 7th February 1963 tsunami as a worse
case scenario. In Akoli, 46.5% of all buildings are classified highly
vulnerable (BV). Approximately, 26.3% of all households are located within
buildings with a High BV classification whereas 85% of all businesses are
located within buildings with a High BV classification and 13.7% of the
population is located within buildings with a High BV classification. In
Selianitika, 28.8% of all buildings are classified with a High BV and 11%
of all households are located within buildings with a High BV
classification. Also 29.3% of all businesses and 33.4% of all services are
located within buildings with a High BV classification and 6.7% of the
population is located within buildings with a High BV classification. We
estimate the minimum costs of a hypothetical tsunami with a wave run-up (H(m)max)
of + 5 m. The results are considered significant because they have
important implications for coastal risk assessment, resource allocation
and disaster management planning. |
