Utku Kânoglu is professor at the Department of Aerospace Engineering, Middle East Technical University, Ankara, Turkey. He holds a Ph.D. from the Tsunami Research Center, University of Southern California. He is actively involved with all aspects of tsunami research including numerical, laboratory and ?eld studies, with an emphasis on analytical solutions; leading to forecasting, hazard assessment, and mitigation and planning.
Yuichiro Tanioka is currently professor at the Faculty of Science, Hokkaido University, Japan. He is also a member of earthquake research committees of the Headquarters for Earthquake Research Promotion in Japan. He was director of the Institute of Seismology and Volcanology at Hokkaido University until 2018. He was also a vice-president of the Seismological Society of Japan until 2017. He is interested in research on tsunami generation mechanism, source processes of great earthquakes, and development of tsunami early warning techniques.
EmileA. Okal is professor Emeritus at the Department of Earth & Planetary Sciences at Northwestern University. He is a seismologist with a specialization in tsunamis, and the origin of deep earthquakes. He holds a Ph.D. from the California Institute of Technology.
Maria Ana Baptista is professor at Instituto Politécnico de Lisboa and an invited professor at Universidade de Lisboa. She holds a Ph.D. in Physics - Geophysics of the University of Lisbon. Her research interests are tsunamis and natural hazards. She was the Vice-Chair of the Intergovernmental Coordination Group of IOC UNESCO for the implementation of the Tsunami Early Warning System in the period 2007-2011, and involved actively in the implementation of the Portuguese Tsunami Warning System. She coordinated the FP7 project on tsunamis - ASTARTE (Assessment Strategy and Risk Reduction for Tsunamis in Europe).
