The study of palaeotsunamis preserved in the sedimentary record has developed over the past three decades to a point where the criteria used to identify these events range from well …
Much progress has been made since the first published studies of tsunami deposits nearly 30 years ago. Geochemistry is now a much more widely used proxy in tsunami research …
Coastal boulders are good evidence of high-energy events, but the distinction between storm and tsunami boulders remains difficult to identify and mathematical models are still in …
The origin of tsunamis in the Mediterranean region and its connected seas, including the Marmara Sea, the Black Sea and the SW Iberian Margin in the NE Atlantic Ocean, is …
The growth and decay of oceanic hotspot volcanoes are intrinsically related to a competition between volcanic construction and erosive destruction, and coastlines are at the forefront 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 …
As space-based Earth observations are delivering a growing amount and variety of data, the potential of this information to better support disaster risk management is coming into …

Sedimentary features and identification criteria of boulders deposited by tsunamis and storm waves are highly controversial because of the lack of detailed studies of boulders that are …
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 …
