    • Contamination of 8.2 ka cold climate records by the Storegga tsunami in the Nordic Seas 

      Bondevik, Stein; Risebrobakken, Bjørg; Gibbons, Steven J.; Rasmussen, Tine Lander; Løvholt, Finn (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-04-04)
      The 8200-year BP cooling event is reconstructed in part from sediments in the Norwegian and North Seas. Here we show that these sediments have been reworked by the Storegga tsunami – dated to the coldest decades of the 8.2 ka event. We simulate the maximum tsunami flow velocity to be 2–5 m/s on the shelf offshore western Norway and in the shallower North Sea, and up to about 1 m/s down to a water ...

    • Some giant submarine landslides do not produce large tsunamis 

      Løvholt, Finn; Bondevik, Stein; Laberg, Jan Sverre; Kim, Jihwan; Boylan, Noel (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-08-07)
      Landslides are the second-most important cause of tsunamis after earthquakes, and their potential for generating large tsunamis depend on the slide process. Among the world's largest submarine landslides is the Storegga Slide that generated an ocean-wide catastrophic tsunami, while no traces of a tsunami generated from the similar and nearby Trænadjupet Slide have been found. Previous models for ...
