The use of boulders for characterising past tsunamis: lessons from the 2004 Indian Ocean and 2009 South Pacific tsunamis
Tsunamis are high energy events capable of transporting extremely heavy loads including
boulders. We compare boulder deposits created by two modern tsunami events, the 2004 …

Boulder and fine sediment transport and deposition by the 2004 tsunami in Lhok Nga (western Banda Aceh, Sumatra, Indonesia): a coupled offshore–onshore model
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 …

Process-sedimentological challenges in distinguishing paleo-tsunami deposits
G Shanmugam - Natural Hazards, 2012 - Springer
There has been a lively debate since the 1980s on distinguishing between paleo-tsunami
deposits and paleo-cyclone deposits using sedimentological criteria. Tsunami waves not …
