Abstract | Tsunami are underrated as major hazards, as it is wrongly believed that they occur infrequently and only along some distant shoreline. Yet evidence for past great tsunami has recently been discovered ...long apparently aseismic and protected coastlines, such as those of Australia and Western Europe. With a large proportion of the world's population living in coastal regions, the threat from tsunami cannot be ignored.show more |
