Resumo(s)

Storm- and tsunami-deposits are generated by similar depositional mechanisms making their discrimination hard to establish using classic sedimentologic methods. A promising approach is to use rock magnetism techniques to search for new physical benchmarks of tsunami deposits and to integrate them into a multi-disciplinary study. To test our method, we investigate the 1755 Lisbon tsunami deposit from the Boca do Rio estuary and other Tsunami-induced deposits from Algarve (Portugal) and Huelva (Spain), as well as storm-like deposits for comparison. Magnetic methods repose on bulk (magnetic susceptibility, SIRM, Hc) and directional (AMS, paleomagnetism) magnetic properties.
