Numerous post-tsunami surveys have been conducted in the last two decades, especially
since the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami. These studies have documented a variety of …

Estimating the magnitude of a past tsunami from its deposits is one of the major topics to be
developed in future studies on tsunami hazard assessment. Main limitations are (1) the great …

Abstract The Indian Ocean tsunami flooded the coastal zone of the Andaman Sea and left
tsunami deposits with a thickness of a few millimetres to tens of centimetres over a roughly …

This paper focuses on the relationship between the maximum extent of sandy tsunami
deposits and inundation distance of the 2011 Tohoku-oki tsunami. Inundation limits of the …

Case studies of recent tsunami impacts have proven to be extremely useful in understanding
the geologic processes involved during inundation and return flow, and refining the criteria …

Nor should we omit to mention the havoc committed on low coasts, during earthquakes, by
waves of the sea which roll in upon the land, bearing everything before them, for many miles …

Abstract The 15 November 2006 Kuril earthquake (Mw 8.1–8.4) and tsunami enabled us to
collect a compelling data set of coastal geomorphic change in the Kuril Islands from~ 3 …

Marine inundation associated with the 5 to 8 m storm surge of Typhoon Haiyan in 2013 left
overwash sediments inland on the coastal plains of the northwestern shores of Leyte Gulf …

The 2011 Tohoku-oki tsunami caused severe damage to the coastal regions of eastern
Japan and left a sediment veneer over affected areas. We discuss differences in …

The objectives of this work are (1) to examine the mechanisms that influence tsunami
erosion and deposition mechanisms in the littoral zone via physical simulations of breaking …
