英文摘要 | Detailed examination of a 32‐year record of high‐resolution bottom pressure measurements at Axial Seamount and vicinity) in the northeast Pacific identified a total of 41 tsunamis between 1986‐2018. All of the events were associated with tsunamigenic earthquakes with magnitudes of 7.0 and greater. Statistical analysis of the data reveals that the time series of maximum tsunami amplitude and root‐mean‐square (RMS) tsunami amplitude follow strict power‐law distributions, with considerably less deviation than for coastal tide gauge records. The high statistical reliability of the seamount record is attributable to the long duration of the observations and to the low signal‐to‐noise ratio of digital open‐ocean bottom pressure records. The power law for the RMS tsunami amplitude is especially stable and follows a pure Pareto distribution (with exponent, β = 1.24) even when the minimum threshold is increased to the point that only a few events remain in the time series. |
