Can mud deposits indicate inundation extent of paleotsunamis? Insights from sediment-transport simulations for sand and mud

Field surveys following the 2011 Tohoku-oki tsunami showed that mud tsunami deposits reached close to the tsunami inundation limit. However, the factors controlling the distribution of mud tsunami deposits remained unclear. We investigated these influencing factors by numerically simulating sand and...
