The role of Holocene relative sea-level change in preserving records of subduction zone earthquakes by Dura, Tina, Engelhart, Simon E., Vacchi, Matteo, Horton, Benjamin Peter, Kopp, Robert E., Peltier, William Richard, Bradley, Sarah

“…In near-field regions that were located beneath northern hemisphere ice sheets (e.g., western Vancouver Island), RSL fall from a mid-Holocene highstand has limited prehistoric earthquake records to the last 1 ka. In intermediate field regions (e.g., southern Washington and central Oregon), gradual RSL rise over the last ∼7 ka has preserved widespread records of prehistoric earthquakes. …”
