Tsunami deposits highlight high-magnitude earthquake potential in the Guerrero seismic gap Mexico
Abstract Globally, the largest tsunamigenic earthquakes have occurred along subduction zones. Devastating events exceeding magnitude 9, such as those in Chile, Sumatra, and Japan, struck in regions lacking instrumental records of similar events. Despite the absence of such events along the 1000-kilo...
