註釋This catalog describes all known tsunamis that have affected Alaska in historic times. Alaska has a complex tsunami history due to the varied tectonic regimes, its history of colonization by the Russians and Americans, and its geography of many isolated bays and islands. It is the one area of the U.S. which produces tsunamis capable of causing damage at far removed locations in the Pacific, including those most destructive to Hawaii and the U.S. west coast. Marigrams for Alaskan tsunamis. Tsunami travel time charts for Alaska. Extensive references. Place name index.
