Combinations of volcanic-flank and seafloor-sediment failure offshore Montserrat, and their implications for tsunami generation
Recent seafloor mapping around volcanic islands shows that submarine landslide deposits are common and widespread. Such landslides may cause devastating tsunamis, but accurate assessment of tsunami hazard relies on understanding failure processes and sources. Here we use high-resolution geophysical...
