Palaeotsunami research in the Sino-Pacific region has increased markedly following the
2011 Tōhoku-oki tsunami. Recent studies encompass a variety of potential sources and …

Large tsunamis occur infrequently but have the capacity to cause enormous numbers of
casualties, damage to the built environment and critical infrastructure, and economic losses …

A global ocean circulation model is coupled to a particle-tracking model to simulate the
transport of floating debris washed into the North Pacific Ocean by the Tohoku tsunami. A …

Marine communities are dynamic and spatially heterogeneous. Earthquakes and tsunamis
modulate the structure of marine communities at short and long-term scales. The objective of …

The occurrence of tsunami damage is not limited to events causing coastal inundation. Even
without flooding, maritime assets are vulnerable to significant damage from strong currents …

The 2011 Tohoku tsunami devastated the northeastern Japan coasts and caused localized
damage to coastal infrastructure across the Pacific. The tsunami resulted in strong currents …

Mangrove forests provide valuable coastal protection from erosion, habitat for terrestrial and
marine species, nursery grounds for commercial fisheries and are economically important …

Recent work has applied microtextural and heavy mineral analyses to sandy storm and
tsunami deposits from Portugal, Scotland, Indonesia and the USA. We looked at the …

The linear Boussinesq equations are an ideal model for transoceanic propagation of
tsunamis. However, they are impractical for real-time application because Boussinesq-type …

This paper analyzes the resilience cycle in San Juan Bautista (SJB), a town in Robinson
Crusoe Island which has been severely affected by four tsunamis since it was first occupied …
