From: Identifying tsunami traces beyond sandy tsunami deposits using terrigenous biomarkers: a case study of the 2011 Tohoku-oki tsunami in a coastal pine forest, northern Japan

Fig. 5

The thickness of the sandy tsunami deposit (bars), the presence (filled stars)/absence (open star) of isolongifolene concentration peaks (n.a., not analyzed), and stratigraphy based on visual observations and depth profiles of isolongifolene concentrations at locations A1, A4, A6, A7, and the reference site R (white circles), and 137Cs concentrations at location A6 (black circles). The gray shaded area indicates our stratigraphic correlation of the tsunami trace, including the sand deposit and the isolongifolene peaks. The black arrow representing the inundation area of the 2011 Tohoku-oki tsunami is based on Tanigawa et al. (2018)
