Exploring offshore sediment evidence of the 1755 CE Tsunami (Faro, Portugal): implications for the study of outer shelf Tsunami deposits

Outer shelf sedimentary records are promising for determining the recurrence intervals of tsunamis. However, compared to onshore deposits, offshore deposits are more difficult to access, and so far, studies of outer shelf tsunami deposits are scarce. Here, an example of studying these deposits is pr...
