Low-lying sandy deposit observed 2008 to 2013 and dated to later than 1650 C.E. on Anegada, British Virgin Islands

This part of the release provides an updated list of places on Anegada, none of them more than 0.5 m above sea level, where observed sandy deposits may represent the Lisbon tsunami of 1755 C.E. These places were previously plotted in Figure A3 of https://doi.org/10.1130/GES01356.1, a paper in which the Lisbon tsunami is inferred to have had minor effects on Anegada compared with a sea flood a few centuries earlier. Details about the low, probable Lisbon deposits were previously reported in https://doi.org/10.1007/s11069-010-9622-6 (stratigraphy), https://doi.org/10.1007/s11069-011-9730-y (molluscan paleontology), and https://doi.org/10.1007/s11069-010-9706-3 (foraminifera).
