Event deposits in lake sediments provide invaluable chronicles of geodynamic and climatic
natural hazards on multi-millennial timescales. Sediment archives are particularly useful for …

The study of palaeotsunamis preserved in the sedimentary record has developed over the
past three decades to a point where the criteria used to identify these events range from well …

There is a growing interest for marine flooding related to recent catastrophic events and their
unintended consequences in terms of casualties and damages, and to the increasing …

Some of the proxies used to identify palaeotsunamis are reviewed in light of new findings
following the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami and the 2009 South Pacific Tsunami, and a …

Abstract The Indian Ocean tsunami flooded the coastal zone of the Andaman Sea and left
tsunami deposits with a thickness of a few millimetres to tens of centimetres over a roughly …

Supralittoral boulders and blocks are prominent sedimentary features along rocky
shorelines worldwide. In most cases, their deposition is attributed to high-energy wave …

Coastal risk assessment and hazard mitigation require datasets on centennial and
millennial temporal scales to capture natural variability and multiple occurrences of the …

Extreme storm events in the coastal zone are one of the main forcing agents of short-term
coastal system behavior. As such, storms represent a major threat to human activities …

The∼ 500-year historical record of seismicity along the central Chile coast (30–34° S) is
characterized by a series of∼ M 8.0–8.5 earthquakes followed by low tsunamis (< 4 m) …

The complex transport and depositional processes associated with tsunamis and storms and
the peculiarities of local inundation present questions associated with the recognition and …
