I met Martin Koehler #phdstudent #UQ #Australia at the 2024 #ISROC field school St. Croix #USVI. This week he visited @uniheidelberg.bsky.social and presented his work on coastal boulder deposits in the South Pacific #Tonga. Good opportunity for a short tour of the (geo)highlights of #Heidelberg!

Understanding extreme-wave hazards on high-energy coasts requires a standardised approach to field data collection: Analysis and recommendations Abstract. Coastal boulder deposits provide vital information on extreme wave events. They are crucial for understanding storm and tsunami impacts on rocky coasts, and for understanding long-term hazar...
