Although the local people of Sikakap – the closed island near epicenter (78.33 km) only felt low shaking (II-III Mercally Intensity), it rised tsunami 7.4 m height causing casualties 447 people died. We suggested the phenomenon is the tsunami earthquake. Therefore we calculate the source mechanism by using W-phase method to determine its parameter. The result yield good value due to reference of GCMT solution with strike 340.3°, dip 8.3°, and slip 116.9°. The cross section diagram of hypocenter show the event located on the beginning of subduction. We obtain the values of seismic radiated energy 1.76×1014 Nm, seismic moment 5.37×1027 Nm, and its ratio is Θ = -6.1. It counted as the threshold of tsunami earthquake. The rupture process has long duration 82 s. The facts proved that the 2010 Mentawai as a tsunami earthquake. © 2012 American Institute of Physics.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Seismic radiated energy,Tsunami earthquake[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1063/1.4730711[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
