Ten years after the 2011 Tohoku-oki earthquake and tsunami: Geological and environmental effects and implications for disaster policy changes
Although the 2011 Tohoku-oki earthquake and tsunami were devastating to coastal
environments, many of their effects have not lasted: over several years they have generally …
