Submarine mass wasting and associated tsunami risk offshore western Thailand, Andaman Sea, Indian Ocean [PDF]
2-D seismic data from the top and the western slope of Mergui Ridge in water depths between 300 and 2200 m off the Thai west coast have been investigated in order to identify mass transport deposits (MTDs) and evaluate the tsunamigenic potential of ...

Framework for Remote Sensing and Modelling of Lithium-Brine Deposit Formation
The demand for “green” metals such as lithium is increasing as the world works to reduce its reliance on fossil fuels. More than half of the world’s lithium resources are contained in lithium-brine deposits, including the salt flats, or “salars”, of the ...
