Equipment Used
|
|
|
Purpose
|
|
Collect tsunami measurements including water level, run-up elevation,
|
|
inundation distance, tsunami flow direction, topographic profile, erosion depths, and tsunami sand deposit thickness and characteristics.
|
|
Samples of tsunami sands were collected for laboratory analyses for grain size distribution,
|
|
microfossil content, mineralogy, and chemistry.
|
|
Box cores and pipe cores were also taken for stratigraphy.
|
|
|
Information to be Derived
|
|
Collect evidence of tsunami flow depth, flow direction, run-up elevation, and maximum inundation
