Impacts of Catastrophic Marine Inundation Events (CMIEs) on the Prehistoric Archaeological Record of the Australian Coastline

该项目将提高澳大利亚应对未来灾难性海洋淹没事件（CMIEs）的能力，包括海啸和旋风风暴潮。CMIEs是危害澳大利亚沿海人口和基础设施的主要自然灾害。沿海社区的灾害风险评估和管理战略需要具有时间深度的数据。该项目将在100年至1000年的时间尺度上，提供CMIEs对西北大陆架WA海岸线影响的高分辨率测年和地层证据。

This project will enhance Australia's ability to respond to future Catastrophic Marine Inundation Events (CMIEs) from tsunamis and cyclonic storm surges. CMIEs represent a major natural hazard endangering Australian coastal populations and infrastructure. Disaster risk assessments and management strategies for coastal communities need data with time-depth. This project will produce high-resolution dating and stratigraphic evidence on the effects of CMIEs on the North West Shelf WA coastline over 100 to 1000 year timescales.
