This earthquake produced a
tsunami that was recorded at tide gages monitored at the Tsunami Warning
Centers. Many observatories provide data to the centers; such as the NOAA National Ocean Service, the U. of Hawaii Sea Level Center, the
Chilean Navy, and the National Tidal Facility in Australia among others. Click
on the site name to see a graph of the tsunami, when available. Listed wave
heights are maximum amplitude in cm (above sea level). Observed Arrival time is
the actual tsunami arrival time in UTC on gages where it could be determined.
The Computed Arrival time is the estimated time of arrival computed at the West
Coast/Alaska Tsunami Warning Center (NTWC) based on the origin time and location.
The Sample Interval column shows the time between samples.
For additional information about this tsunami event see the Pacific Tsunami
Warning Center's homepage .
