“"The probabilities are high that we're going to see a megathrust earthquake in the [Pacific Northwest] in the next 100 years," Carbotte said. "[This research] does very much inform the hazard and resilience mitigation efforts."
I’ve got family in Seattle and friends in Olympia and the Cascandian subduction zone is a constant worry. Should a tsunami hit, folks have to get to higher ground fast.

Well, true, but the Cascadian subduction zone would cause the mother of earthquakes where the tectonic plates near Vancouver Island meet. I understand scientists can still study the tree rings of old growth forest which were covered with water following the tsunami in 1700 following the last great Cascadian subduction quake.
