Le risque tsunami en Martinique : planifier une évacuation préventive en optimisant l’accessibilité de sites refuges
The risk of tsunami threatens the whole Caribbean coastline and especially the Lesser Antilles. The available models of tsunami propagation estimate that the travel time from the closest seismic sources would only take a few minutes to impact the Martinique Island. Considering this high threat, the...
