University of Washington Geologist Brian Atwater points to layers from a Duwamish GeoSlice peel in 2017 that provides possible evidence for
earthquakes over the past 2000 years in the Cascadia Subduction Zone. The last huge earthquake, the last really “Big One” to hit the Pacific North-
west Coast, struck around 9 p.m. on Jan. 26, 1700 — 321 years ago.

TULLAN SPITZ

At approximately 9 p.m. Pacific Stan-
dard Time, Jan. 26, 1700, a magnitude 8
or 9 earthquake occurred on the Cascadia
Subduction Zone, a 680-mile stretch be-
tween Vancouver Island, British Columbia
and Cape Mendocino, California.
How could scientists know for sure?
American researchers used carbon
dating on the spruce, peat and fossilized
plants. Sitka spruce as far apart as south-
ern Washington and Northern California
died from the high waters during the same
few decades — sometime between 1695
and 1720. Their rings were wide right up
through the last ring, proving that a sud-

den event rather than slow sea level rise
was the culprit.
How do they know the
exact hour of the quake?
After the American scientists published
their work, Japan’s Kenji Satake published
a letter in the journal “Nature” that sum-
marized meticulous records from multiple
locations in Japan describing high waves
on Jan. 27 and 28.
It was called Japan’s “orphan” tsunami
because there was no earthquake locally
that could have triggered it. There is also
Is the Cascadia Subduction Zone
likely to act up again?
Over the last 10,000-years, earthquakes
around magnitude 9 have occurred along
the length of the Cascadia Subduction
Zone 19 times — about every 526 years.
The southern section of the zone has seen
19 additional quakes of 8 or higher. Here,
very close to home, the average recurrence
is every 234 years. With the last major
event placed at 315 years ago, we’re due.

no evidence of a large earthquake in South
America or Alaska at that time. The signs
pointed to a quake from the Cascadia Sub-
duction Zone.
Satake explained that it would have
taken a tsunami about 10 hours to travel
from Cascadia to Japan, thus pinpointing
the earthquake to about 9 p.m., Jan. 26. Be-
cause of the extent of the damage recorded
in Japan, Satake estimated that it was ap-
proximately a magnitude 9 quake.
Is there any other evidence?
In 1997, scientists used dendrochronol-
ogy — a method of dating trees by com-
paring ring patterns to samples of known
age — on the ghost forest trees. They were
able to determine the trees had stopped
growing after completing the 1699 grow-
ing season, dating their death to some-
where between September 1699 and May
1700, further confirming the date inde-
pendently of Japanese records.
More evidence is on the ocean floor.
Paleoseismologists have dated core sam-
ples of debris from earthquake-induced
landslides. This data indicate a large earth-
quake with a lot of shaking was going on
during this period — and that it was hap-
pening off the Oregon Coast.
And remember the native stories?
Scholarly analysis of nine stories with suf-
ficient details to assign date ranges nar-
rowed the timeline to approximately 1701,
remarkably close to the accepted date for
the event.

What evidence points
to an earthquake in 1700?
Oral traditions of native people living in
the Cascadia region reference numerous
events of shaking and flooding in this time
period, but those stories can’t be dated to
specific calendar years.
Scientists are well aware of the de-
structive power of other subduction zone
quakes — like the 1960 magnitude 9.5
Chilean quake and the 1964 magnitude
9.5 quake in Alaska — so they were eager
to chart the history of plate activity in the
Cascadia Subduction Zone.
In the 1980s and 1990s, scientists con-
ducting fieldwork found evidence that
coastal lands in the Northwest dropped
suddenly and were inundated by tsunami
waves and mud. All along the Oregon and
Washington coast, the rapid advance of
seawater had buried delicate marsh plants
that were still alive and killed Sitka spruce,
leaving behind rotting stumps. Rot-resis-
tant western red cedar survived longer and
their remnants became known as “ghost
forests.”
These sudden changes in the coastal
landscape pointed heavily to an earth-
quake and tsunami.
