Are inundation limit and maximum extent of sand useful for differentiating tsunamis and storms?: An example from sediment transport simulations on the Sendai Plain, Japan

We examined the quantitative difference in the distribution of tsunami and storm deposits based on numerical simulations of inundation and sediment transport due to tsunami and storm events on the Sendai Plain, Japan. The calculated distance from the shoreline inundated by the 2011 Tohoku-oki tsunami was smaller than that inundated by storm...
