Resumen

MATOS-PUPO, Felipe; LEON-BRITO, Alder; SECO-HERNANDEZ, Ricardo  y  PEROS, Matthew Charles. Spatial distribution of coastal boulders in Cuba. Min. Geol. [online]. 2023, vol.39, n.1, pp. 1-14.  Epub 31-Mar-2023. ISSN 1993-8012.

Blocks transported or moved by the energy of large waves have been the subject of research in different geographical areas of the planet, including some areas of the Caribbean. In Cuba, other authors have identified coastal sectors with the presence of these accumulations; however, a project included in the National Program “Integral Characterization of the Geology of Cuba” allowed for an update of these deposits in coastal areas. This work is aim to develop a new national map with the spatial distribution of coastal boulders. The importance of this result lies in the connection with the extreme wave events that have affected the shores of the Cuban island, both in the past and in the present, a topic that, at the same time, is closely related to Life Task program, especially with the Prevention of Disaster Risks on the coastal zones of Cuba.

Palabras clave : boulders; risk prevention; Cuban coast; extreme waves; Task Life in Cuba.
