Microfossils from coastal environments as indicators of paleo-earthquakes, tsunamis and storms

TL;DR: In this article, microfossil habitat preferences and taphonomic character are used to constrain sediment provenance and identify overwash deposits, and how this information can be used to reconstruct the recurrence of tsunamis and storms.
Journal ArticleDOI

Highly variable recurrence of tsunamis in the 7,400 years before the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented an extraordinary 7,400 year stratigraphic sequence of prehistoric tsunami deposits from a coastal cave in Aceh, Indonesia, and demonstrated that at least 11 prehistoric tsunamis struck the Aceh coast between 7, 400 and 2,900 years ago.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sedimentary and foraminiferal evidence of the 2011 Tōhoku-oki tsunami on the Sendai coastal plain, Japan

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the tsunami deposit exposed in 14 shallow trenches along a ~ 4.5km transect perpendicular to the coast and performed a preliminary comparison with sediments deposited by the Jōgan tsunami of A.D. 869.
