Book Description
Did you know that the Grand Bank earthquake of 1929 triggered ahuge submarine mass movement which broke submarine cables over adistance of up to 1000 km from its source and generated a tsunamiwhich devastated a small village in Newfoundland killing 27 people?The same happened in Papua New Guinea in 1998 with more than 2000casualties. Submarine mass movements of various sizes and styles areshaping the sea floor and are of concern for many facets of humanactivities both onshore and offshore. These include the development ofnatural resources, energy and communication transport, coastalinfrastructures and communities. This book provides a world-wideperspective of submarine mass movements and their consequences. Thishas been made possible by assembling excellent contributions fromactive researchers, groups, or institutions, thus providing fullcoverage of the many scientific and engineering aspects of this typeof marine and coastal geo-hazard. It covers fundamental as well assite specific studies from many areas including the Atlantic andPacific oceans, inner seas like the Mediterranean Sea, and fjordsusing the most recent technologies from multibeam sonar imagingtechniques, 3D seismic analysis, slope stability analysis, to debrisflow and tsunami modeling."Audience: " This book is of interest to any researcher in thefield of marine and coastal geo-hazards. It will be useful forplanners, scientists and engineers involved in the development ofoffshore and near-shore resources and also to those in charge of themanagement and mitigation of coastal hazards. For graduate students, this book provides an up-to-date vision of the process of submarinemass movements and their consequences from both ascientific and anengineering standpoint, and it includes a unique collection of theexisting literature on marine geo-hazards."CD-Rom included" This volume contains a CD-Rom which in additionto an electronically searchable vers
