Limestone boulders and cobbles noted 2009 to 2017 that pertain to sea floods of the past 1,000 years on Anegada, British Virgin Islands
This part of the release provides an updated georeferenced catalog of limestone boulders and cobbles pertaining to extreme waves on Anegada, a low Caribbean island perched south of the Puerto Rico Trench. Tabulated are 660 limestone clasts, along with clast dimensions and long-axis trend in many instances. Fewer than one-fifth of the clasts were reported previously in https://doi.org/10.1007/s11069-011-9725-8 and https://doi.org/10.1130/GES01356.1. Most were surveyed in 2017.
