Tsunami records of the last 8000 years in the Andaman Island, India, from mega and large earthquakes: Insights on recurrence interval
As many as seven tsunamis from the past 8000 years are evidenced by sand sheets that rest
on buried wetland soils at Badabalu, southern Andaman Island, along northern part of the …

High resolution geochemical and grain-size analysis of the AD 1755 tsunami deposit: Insights into the inland extent and inundation phases
In the study of palaeotsunamis it is crucial to decipher the sedimentological record, to derive
intensity of past events and to infer different inundation phases. To achieve this goal, it is …
