The 1700 orphan tsunami, triggered by a massive subduction zone earthquake, has significant evidence linking its occurrence to geological activity along the Cascadia coastline. Research indicates that the tsunami reached Japan 10 hours after the earthquake hit the Pacific Northwest. The community discussions reveal an interest in geological education, referencing lectures and articles that deepen the understanding of this historical event. Comments highlight the lasting impact of the tsunami on coastal ecology and urban preparedness for future seismic events, with multiple references to additional resources like lectures and documentaries promoting further learning.
