Summary:

Subaqueous landslides are a common slope process in the geological record. In addition to their geological significance, they pose a risk to offshore infrastructure and can trigger destructive tsunamis affecting coastal communities. This volume offers a multi-disciplinary approach to document better the still poorly understood frequency and dynamics of subaqueous landslides.
