SGER: Salvaging Clues to Tsunami Recurrence in Southern India

SGER：印度南部海啸复发的抢救线索Lisa伊利，中央华盛顿大学-0726291摘要该项目的目标是通过以下方式确定有利于印度南部海岸海啸沉积物长期保存的环境：1）记录2004年海啸沉积物在各种地貌环境中的沉积后命运，2）将气旋沉积物与2004年海啸沉积物进行比较，以制定区分热带海啸和风暴沉积物的标准; 3）寻找并描述热带地区保存海啸沉积物的自然环境。通过这些方式，该项目将有助于指导在低纬度海岸寻找古海啸沉积物。

SGER: Salvaging Clues to Tsunami Recurrence in Southern IndiaLisa Ely, Central Washington UniversityEAR-0726291ABSTRACTThe goal of this project is to identify environments conducive to the long-term preservation of tsunami deposits on the southern coast of India by 1) documenting the post-depositional fate of the 2004 tsunami deposits in various geomorphic settings, 2) comparing cyclone deposits with those of the 2004 tsunami to develop criteria for differentiating tsunami and storm deposits in the tropics and 3) finding and describing natural environments that preserve tsunami deposits in this tropical region. In these ways the project will help guide the search for paleotsunami deposits on low-latitude shores.
