Notes | “A new history of great earthquakes (and their tsunamis) for the central and southern Cascadia subduction zone shows more frequent (17 in the past 6700 yr) megathrust ruptures than previous coastal chronologies.” (from the Abstract) The article contains a link to supplementary data, also accessible through U.S. Geological Survey data releases. |
