DOI: 10.1016/j.apgeochem.2020.104644
Abstract: Abstract Potential tsunami inundation areas can be predicted by the distribution of paleo tsunami deposits on land, which are mainly composed of marine-derived sands and muds. These exotic sandy and muddy layers have been identified… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.margeo.2019.02.009
Abstract: Abstract The upper boundary of a tsunami deposit often comprises a mud-dominated layer, called a mud cap, resulting from the different settling times of various grain sizes in the suspended sediment. This mud cap is… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/sed.12310
Abstract: X-ray computed microtomography is used to obtain high resolution imagery of a historical tsunami deposit in Andalusia, Spain (1755 Lisbon tsunami). The technique allows characterization of grain-size distribution, structures, component analysis and sedimentary fabric of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/sed.12623
Abstract: Over the past 200 years of written records, the Hawaiian Islands have experienced tens of tsunamis generated by earthquakes in the subduction zones of the Pacific ‘Ring of Fire’ (for example, Alaska–Aleutian, Kuril–Kamchatka, Chile and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s40562-017-0077-4
Abstract: High-accuracy age estimations of tsunami deposits are very important for tsunami deposit research because the recurrence interval and frequency of tsunami deposits allow us to assess the devastating impacts of tsunamis in a populated country… read more here.

Using tsunami deposits to determine the maximum depth of benthic burrowing
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "PLoS ONE"
DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0182753
Abstract: The maximum depth of sediment biomixing is directly related to the vertical extent of post-depositional environmental alteration in the sediment; consequently, it is important to determine the maximum burrowing depth. This study examined the maximum… read more here.
