Abstract:The identification of extreme wave events' deposits is of the main importance in the contexts of global warming and coastal geohazards. Specifically, improving the knowledge of this phenomenon is extremely relevant for high populated volcanic oceanic islands. In this paper, we analyse two extreme wave event deposits located on a coastal platform formed by lavas from the 1730–1736 Timanfaya eruption in Lanzarote Island (Spain). The first one consists of a boulder ridge parallel to the coast of approximately 750… Show more
