Atlantic and Gulf of America Submarine Landslides-Tsunami Hazards Project
Submarine landslides and tsunamis along the U.S. Atlantic and Gulf of America coasts are rare, but the risks associated with these natural hazards are high. While most earthquakes in these margins are low in magnitude, and so shaking from them is not intense, they can still cause a lot of damage. The Atlantic and Gulf of America margins are heavily urbanized, support extensive port and industrial...
