Zusammenfassung |
The island of Ireland is battered by waves from all sides, most ferociously on
the west coast as the first port of call for waves travelling across the Atlantic
Ocean. However, when discussing ocean events relevant to the nation of Ireland, one must
actually consider its significantly larger designated continental shelf, which is one of the
largest seabed territories in Europe. With this expanded definition, it is not surprising
that Ireland has been subject to many oceanic events which could be designated as "extreme"; in
this paper we present what we believe to be the first catalogue of such events, dating as far
back as the turn of the last ice age. |
