Sedimentary structures reflecting the flow and depositional regime of the 8.15 ka yr BP Storegga submarine landslide tsunami at the Montrose Basin, North-East Scotland
An anomalous sand unit preserved within an outcrop section at the south-west margin of the Montrose Basin (north-east Scotland) is investigated using a multi-proxy approach comprising lithostratigraphic analysis, particle size analysis, loss on ignition, geochemistry, and experimental modelling. This enables detailed reconstruction of the flow and depositional regime of the 8.15 ka yr BP Storegga Submarine Landslide Tsunami. The sand deposit (mic…

Onshore tsunami sediment transport mechanisms inferred from heavy mineral assemblages
The aim of this study is to discuss and to extend the characterization of (palaeo)tsunami deposits, and their source materials, based upon the detailed study of their heavy mineral assemblages. Results obtained from three distinct locations (Portugal, Scotland and Indonesia), different coastal contexts and chronologies (the tsunami events studied took place at 1500 cal. yr BP, AD 1755 and 2004) are summarized and discussed in order to contribute …
Rapid Holocene relative sea-level changes in Gruinart, Isle of Islay, Scottish Inner Hebrides
Litho- and biostratigraphic analyses undertaken in the Gruinart estuary, central Islay, reveal a detailed sedimentary record of Holocene relative sea-level changes and high-energy flood events during the last 10 000 years. During the Lateglacial-Holocene transition relative sea level had fallen to below c. 0.5 m OD and remained at this depth until c. 8830 14 C years BP. Thus, the early-Holocene minimum sea level is here, relatively well constrain…
