Coastal evolution on volcanic oceanic islands: A complex interplay between volcanism, erosion, sedimentation, sea-level change and biogenic production
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 …
