Systematic review shows that work done by storm waves can be misinterpreted as tsunami-related because commonly used hydrodynamic equations are flawed
Coastal boulder deposits (CBD), transported by waves at elevations above sea level and
substantial distances inland, are markers for marine incursions. Whether they are tsunami or …

A new point cloud processing method unveiled hidden coastal boulders from deep vegetation
Huge coastal boulders are useful to reconstruct the size of past extreme waves such as
those associated with tsunamis and storms using inverse-type or forward-type boulder …

Boulder displacements along rocky coasts: A new deterministic and theoretical approach to improve incipient motion formulas
Several impacts of high-energy marine events–tsunamis and storms–which have occurred
along the Mediterranean coasts, have determined boulder displacements in different ways …

Dynamic modeling of barrier island response to hurricane storm surge under future sea level rise
Sea level rise (SLR) has the potential to exacerbate the impacts of extreme storm events on
the coastal landscape. This study examines the coupled interactions of SLR on storm-driven …

Storm waves may be the source of some “tsunami” coastal boulder deposits
Coastal boulder deposits (CBD) provide what are sometimes the only remaining signatures
of wave inundation on rocky coastlines; in recent decades, CBD combined with initiation of …
