The rissaga of 15 June 2006 in Ciutadella (Menorca), a meteorological tsunami
Résumé
An extraordinary "rissaga" event (the local name for high-amplitude sea level oscillations) with 4?5 m of amplitude occurred on 15 June 2006 at Ciutadella (Menorca, Spain). In this paper we describe the rissaga event and propose that the meteorological mechanism responsible for it was an unusual pressure jump, associated with a convective squall line.
