Prodigious submarine landslides during the inception and early growth of volcanic islands [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2017 As volcanic islands grow via subaerial shield-building and edifice growth, large submarine landslides occur. Here, the authors reconstruct the emergence of the Canary Islands via turbidites created by submarine landslides as the islands grew, showing ...
