Description

Explore the complex world of subaqueous mass transport through this specialized text from the American Geophysical Union. This volume provides an in-depth examination of both ancient and contemporary submarine landslides, covering a wide range of geodynamic contexts. From passive and active continental margins to oceanic and continental intraplate settings, the content addresses how these events occur and their broader geological impact. Understanding these landslides is essential for assessing risks to offshore and coastal areas. The book details how their frequency, dimensions, and terminal velocity allow them to travel great distances. It also examines their capacity to generate potentially destructive tsunamis. By analyzing data from outcrops to seismic profiles, this monograph offers a comprehensive look at the mechanisms and characteristics of subaqueous mass transport deposits. This is a vital resource for students and professionals in the field of Earth Sciences.
