Dataset description: Thickness distribution of the most recent sandy tsunami deposit in the Salmon River estuary, Oregon
Geometry
This portion of the data release provides the spatial thickness distribution of sandy deposits inferred to have been deposited at the Salmon River, OR by a circa 1700 CE tsunami. Data were collected by describing hand-operated gouge cores at 129 sites in 2017 and 2018, and supplemented by 114 core descriptions from 1987 (Nelson and others, 2004).
