Dating a medieval tsunami with uranium-series techniques on Caribbean corals

Uranium-series dates from coral boulders constrain the timing of a medieval tsunami from the Puerto Rico Trench. Previously reported evidence for this tsunami includes hundreds of coral boulders that came to rest hundreds of meters inland on Anegada, British Virgin Islands. New U-series dates on these coral boulders provide limiting dates for the tsunami. The narrowest limits were by dating interior bands of a coral that retains the hemispherical form of a living coral colony, and which include adjustments for the number of annual density band couplets between the dated samples and the boulder exteriors. By those limits, the tsunami dates between 1381 and 1391 CE, and likely occurred during summer or fall. The tsunami is important as the only reported sign that the eastern Puerto Rico Trench has produced a great earthquake. The dating may aid in defining the earthquake source and in communicating tsunami hazards.

Cenozoic stratigraphy of Colorado

As a successor to previous Colorado stratigraphy charts (MS-53 Colorado Stratigraphic Chart and MS-54 Cretaceous Stratigraphy of Colorado), this Colorado Geological Survey (CGS) publication resulted from a collaboration between the CGS, USGS, and the Denver Museum of Nature and Science (DMNS). The chart was designed to illustrate Cenozoic stratigraphy spanning the state’s many sedimentary basins. It builds upon the work of dozens of colleagues and updates Richard Pearl’s seminal 1974 stratigraphy chart. The chart leverages the community’s stratigraphic work in both the subsurface and outcrop, and depicts new geochronologic constraints for many units. To facilitate comparison of strata to external forcing factors, the chart employs a linear timescale. Each unit’s dominant depositional environment is depicted, as are major mountain building events, erosional events, and regional unconformities.
