At Punta de Maisí, shows (a) faster uplift close transform boundary (b) northward propagation folding produced convergence Bahamas platform toward Caribbean plate. Along southern coast sequence...
Abstract Coastal boulder deposits (CBDs), named huracanolitos in Cuba, found along rocky shores, result from storms, tropical cyclones or tsunamis. Despite being important indicators for coastal hazard assessment, determining the mode of emplacement CBDs (storm/hurricane tsunami) is not easy. We present, first time English, data about shores Cuban Archipelago. More specifically, we focused on a CBD, that is, to our knowledge, largest one ever described Cuba Island.
