Mid-to late-Holocene fluvial and coastal evolution in the Aceh River delta, Sumatra: effects of sea-level change, sediment supply, wave climate, tectonics and tsunamis Open
The Aceh River delta, northern Sumatra, is a subject of interest since the coastline was struck, more than any other, by the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami, the largest recorded in human history. Thereafter, significant scientific efforts focus…

Sediment analysis and historical context of the 2018 Palu-Donggala tsunami deposit, Indonesia Open
On 28th September 2018, a magnitude 7.5 earthquake occurred on the Palu-Koro strike slip fault near Palu, Indonesia. Shortly after, large tsunami waves generated by the earthquake and the submarine landslides it triggered, washed into Palu…

Glacial Isostatic Adjustment modelling of the mid-Holocene sea-level highstand of Singapore and Southeast Asia Open
The mid-Holocene sea-level highstand refers to the development of higher-than-present relative sea levels (RSLs) in far-field regions between 7,000 and 4,000 years ago because of equatorial ocean syphoning and continental levering. The tim…

Geological perspectives of future equatorial sea level from the Sunda Shelf and Singapore Open
Low-lying equatorial islands are susceptible to relative sea level (RSL) rise. Here, we quantify magnitudes and rates of RSL change since the last glacial maximum (LGM) to provide probability perspectives of future sea level. Geological re…

Challenges of Managing Maritime Cultural Heritage in Asia in the Face of Climate Change Open
Changing weather patterns, increasing frequency and intensity of natural hazards, and rising sea levels associated with global climate change have the potential to threaten cultural heritage sites worldwide. This is especially the case for…

Extending paleo-tsunami records south of the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami patch, Sumatra, Indonesia: 2022 update Open
<p>Our team has previously built a ~7500 year tsunami history for the northern patch of the Sunda Megathrust. However, the paleo-tsunami history south of Aceh province and the 2004 rupture patch remains poorly understood. We conducte…

Extending Instrumental Sea‐Level Records Using Coral Microatolls, an Example From Southeast Asia Open
The small number of reliable long‐term (i.e., >50 yrs) tide gauges in tropical locations is a major source of uncertainty in modern sea‐level change. Coral microatolls record relative sea‐level (RSL) change over their lifetimes and have th…

A new Holocene record from a far-field site in the Indian Ocean to constrain Holocene sea level. Open
<p>Reconstructions of relative sea level (RSL) during the Holocene provide important constraints for Glacial Isostatic Adjustment (GIA) models, determining Earth rheology, estimating ice-equivalent meltwater input, and fingerprinting…

Sediment analysis and modelling reveal short inundation distances and low onshore flow speed of the 2018 Palu-Donggala tsunami in Indonesia Open
<p>On 28 September 2018, a magnitude 7.5 earthquake struck north of Palu, Central Sulawesi, Indonesia. The earthquake generated a tsunami with inundation depths of up to 7.5 m and run-up of up to 10 m above sea level. Inundation dist…

Extending the paleo-tsunami record along the west coast of Sumatra, Indonesia Open
<p>The 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami tragically underscored the practical implication of understanding the Sumatran subduction zone and its tsunami potential. Further paleo-tsunami research is needed to fully inform the assessment of fut…

Past, Present and Future Sea Levels in Singapore  Open
<p>Singapore is a small (728 km<sup>2</sup>) island nation that is vulnerable to rising sea levels with 30% of its land surface area less than 5 m above present sea level. Rising relative sea level (RSL), however, is not …

Assessing the rate of post-depositional change within the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami deposit: implications for long-term records of paleotsunamis Open
<p>Foraminifera are commonly used to examine patterns of tsunami inundation occurring over centennial to millennial timescales. However, the impacts of post-depositional change on geologic reconstructions is unknown. In tropical envi…

The impact of Ming and Qing dynasty maritime bans on trade ceramics recovered from coastal settlements in northern Sumatra, Indonesia Open
We review published literature and historical texts to propose that three periods of official Chinese maritime bans impacted the composition and circulation of trade ceramics along Asian trade routes: Ming Ban 1 (1371 – 1509), Ming Ban 2 (…

Archaeological evidence that a late 14th-century tsunami devastated the coast of northern Sumatra and redirected history Open
Significance We demonstrate that a tsunami in the late 14th century CE destroyed coastal sites along a critical part of the maritime Silk Road and set in motion profound changes in the political economy of Southeast Asia. Our results provi…

Holocene relative sea-level records from coral microatolls in Western Borneo, South China Sea Open
The spatial variability of Holocene relative sea level (RSL) in the South China Sea is unknown, with data restricted to Thailand, the Malay Peninsula, and a few other isolated sites. In this study, we present new continuous RSL records for…
