Table 3 Seven candidate submarine landslide scenarios considered in this study to model the 6th February 2023 eastern Mediterranean tsunami

Scenario name	Longitude (^o)	Latitude (^o)	Length/width of initial water displacement (km/km)	Maximum positive phase (m)	Maximum negative phase (m)	Landslide volume (km³)
LS1	35.50	36.30	20/8.5	2.0	− 2.8	0.19
LS2	35.70	36.45	18/8.0	1.4	− 2.3	0.14
LS3	35.40	36.10	32/8.5	0.5	− 0.6	0.25
LS4	35.80	36.41	18/8.0	1.4	− 2.3	0.14
LS5	35.36	36.46	18/8.0	1.4	− 2.3	0.14
LS6	35.26	36.08	18/8.0	1.4	− 2.3	0.14
LS7	35.36	36.15	18/8.0	1.4	− 2.3	0.14

For calculating the length and width of the candidate sources, the area within the minimum absolute amplitude of 3–4 cm is considered. The volume estimates of the landslide scenarios are based on the volumes of the total displaced water multiplied by two
