主　　题：tsunami Khark island seismotectonic seismic source 

摘      要：Iran is located in one of the seismically active regions of the world. Due to the high probability of earthquakes throughout the country and the potential for tsunami inundation along the coasts and offshore, comprehensive studies on theinteraction of these natural phenomena arc necessary, hi this study, the most conservative scenarios are determined for possible earthquakes within the Khark zone （Persian Gulf） *** on experimental relations between tile fault length, magnitude and displacement, which are paralneters for deter- mining tsunamigenic sources. Subsequently, the maximum height of tstmami waves are calculated based on the specitieations of the seismic source and its distance from the shore as well as the coastal slope. A zoning map of tsunami hazard is finally presented.
