Bonaire's boulder fields revisited: evidence for Holocene tsunami impact on the Leeward Antilles
Supralittoral boulders and blocks are prominent sedimentary features along rocky
shorelines worldwide. In most cases, their deposition is attributed to high-energy wave …

A comprehensive review on structural tsunami countermeasures
Tsunamis pose a substantial threat to coastal communities around the globe. To counter
their effects, several hard and soft mitigation measures are applied, the choice of which …

Hazard potential of volcanic flank collapses raised by new megatsunami evidence
Large-scale gravitational flank collapses of steep volcanic islands are hypothetically
capable of triggering megatsunamis with highly catastrophic effects. Yet, evidence for the …

The tsunami phenomenon
BR Röbke, A Vött - Progress in Oceanography, 2017 - Elsevier
With human activity increasingly concentrating on coasts, tsunamis (from Japanese tsu=
harbour, nami= wave) are a major natural hazard to today's society. Stimulated by disastrous …

Block and boulder transport in eastern Samar (Philippines) during Supertyphoon Haiyan
Fields of dislodged boulders and blocks record catastrophic coastal flooding during strong
storms or tsunamis and play a pivotal role in coastal hazard assessment. Along the rocky …
