• Topic: Dr. Clague and his graduate students conduct research on a variety of natural hazards, including earthquakes, tsunamis, landslides, and floods. Tsunamis are body waves generated by abrupt vertical displacement of the seafloor or lake floor by earthquakes or
  volcanic eruptions. They can also be produced by landslides or, much more rarely, by asteroid impacts. Tsunamis
  generated by submarine earthquakes (the most common source) travel at subsonic speed across the ocean surface. In the
  open ocean the waves are generally only a few centimeters high, but as they approach shore they rapidly grow in height
  and then rapidly surge onshore.To see full abstract and announcement click here.
