TL;DR: It is shown that one of the most prominent oceanic volcanoes on Earth—Fogo, in the Cape Verde Islands—catastrophically collapsed and triggered a megatsunami with devastating effects ~73,000 years ago and it is demonstrated that flank collapses may indeed catastrophically happen and are capable of triggering tsunamis of enormous height and energy, adding to their hazard potential.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reconstruct the evolutionary history of Santa Maria with respect to the timing and magnitude of its vertical movements, using detailed field work and 40Ar/39Ar geochronology.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used bathymetry and high-resolution seismic reflection profiles to characterize the morphology of the insular shelves adjacent to each volcanic edifice of Terceira Island in order to improve the understanding of its evolution.

TL;DR: The geodynamic setting of the Azores archipelago, straddling the triple junction between the North America, Eurasia and Nubia plates, is reflected in frequent volcanic and tectonic activity as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used bathymetric and seismic reflection data to analyze the main volcanic, tectonic and mass-wasting features of Terceira offshore.
