| Abstract | Palaeotsunami research is deeply entrenched in geological thinking. This is hardly surprising given that the conventional way of tracking these events down is through a study of the sediments they leave behind. Recent events such as the 2009 South Pacific and 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunamis however, show all of us that there is considerably more environmental impact involved – people die, buildings are destroyed, water rendered undrinkable, seawalls destroyed, trees uprooted, rivers change their course, fish are washed inland, and debris washed offshore, etc. |
