| Research Abstract |
A huge ocean-wide tsunami, with average heights of more than 20 meters along the west coast of the northern tip of Sumatra followed the 2004 Sumatra-Andaman earthquake (Mw9.2). Several working hypotheses have been proposed, but the generation mechanism for this tsunami remains unresolved. Most of these hypotheses suggest a possible coseismic slip on splay faults in the outer-arc-high off northwest Sumatra [e.g., Sibuet et al., 2007]. Among these splay faults, the Middle Thrust (or possibly the Lower Thrust), can best account for features of the Indian Ocean tsunamis observed at regional and ocean-wide distances [Hirata et al., 2008]. In 2010, we have conducted KH-10-5 high-resolution MCS survey of the likely source region for the tsunami with JAMSTEC R/V Hakuho-Maru. In the region where the Middle thrust is postulated, we found abundant evidences of faulting and folding of the sediment within small basins, indicating that the Middle thrust might be displaced coseismically
