The probability of a tsunami in the Sunda Strait was evaluated on the model of Pangandaran 2006

TEMPO.CO, Jakarta – An earthquake from the giant pumping area in the Sunda Strait has the potential to trigger a tsunami like the one in Pangandaran in 2006, said earthquake researcher from Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB), Irwan Milano.

Tsunami earthquake, according to Irwan Milano, is a term for a type of earthquake. “The shaking was not strong, but the tsunami was big,” he told Tempo today, Saturday, January 22, 2022.

The Dean of the School of Earth Science and Technology, ITB, explained that the subduction earthquake or giant hole in the Sunda Strait region originated at shallow depths. Its location is at the end of the meeting of the Indo-Australian plate or oceanic plate with the Eurasian plate.

“When we meet at the trench (oceanic trench) the depth of the plate boundary is between 5 and 35 km is the subduction zone which is feared to cause a major earthquake,” Eruan said.

Regarding the strong earthquake in the Sunda Strait near the southern region of Banten of magnitude 6.6 on January 14, 2022, the release of earthquake energy does not reduce the probability of a major earthquake of magnitude 8.7. Even if it was considered a release of energy, Eruan estimated that his strength was very small.

“If the earthquake has a magnitude of 8.7 on the Richter scale, then it is 2,000 times greater than the magnitude of a 6.6 earthquake.”

According to Irwan, the location of the likely source of a large earthquake of shallow depth at the point where the plate meets is usually rich in soft sediments. In the example of the 2006 Pangandaran case, sediments made earthquake shocks not strong but tsunami can be loud.

A natural phenomenon called an earthquake tsunami is different from a normal tsunami caused by a large earthquake. Meanwhile, the 8.4-magnitude Nias earthquake in 2005 caused a tsunami that was not very high.

The earthquake researcher from the Geotechnology Research Center of the National Agency for Research and Innovation, Rahma Hanifa, said that the 6.6 Banten earthquake on January 14, 2022 occurred at the edge of the giant hole region. Usually, large earthquakes start from the periphery.

“Let’s move a little bit at a time,” he said in a webinar entitled Banten Earthquake, January 14, 2020, M 6.6 on Friday January 21, 2022.
