Abstract:<p>Organic geochemistry is commonly used in environmental studies. In tsunami research, however, its application is in its infancy and rarely used. Tsunami deposits may also be able to be characterized by organic-geochemical parameters as tsunami transports not only particulate sedimentary material from marine to terrestrial areas (and vice versa), but also associated organic material. Recently, more attention has been given to the usage of natural organic substances (biomarkers) for tsunami iden… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
