Journal ArticleDOI
The role of porosity in discriminating between tsunami and hurricane emplacement of boulders — A case study from the Lesser Antilles, southern Caribbean
TL;DR: In this article, the role of porosity on boulder transport and elucidate the distinction between tsunami and hurricane impacts was investigated for porous reef and coral limestone boulders from the islands of Aruba, Bonaire and Curacao.
Journal ArticleDOI
Preservation potential of tsunami deposits on arid siliciclastic coasts
TL;DR: A review of the changes that have affected muddy to sandy siliciclastic tsunami deposits in Peru is presented in this paper, where the authors show that the preservation of arid-coast tsunami deposits depends on interactions that are more complex that hitherto perceived.
Journal ArticleDOI
The TsuSedMod inversion model applied to the deposits of the 2004 Sumatra and 2006 Java tsunami and implications for estimating flow parameters of palaeo-tsunami
TL;DR: In this article, an inverse model called TsuSedMod is applied to estimate both the minimum flow depth and speed by using the thickness and grain size distribution of a tsunami deposit.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sedimentology of tsunami inflow and backflow deposits: key differences revealed in a modern example
TL;DR: The sedimentary record of the February 2010 tsunami at Isla Mocha consists of backflow deposits to more than 90% as discussed by the authors, which may lead to erroneous interpretations of palaeotsunami magnitudes and sedimentary processes.
Journal ArticleDOI
A quasi-experimental setting of coarse clast transport by the 2010 Chile tsunami (Bucalemu, Central Chile)
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present sedimentological data of the 2010 Chile tsunami from the coastal town of Bucalemu in Central Chile, where cobbles and boulders have been transported up to 155m from the pile in landward direction.
