Tsunami Risk for West Coast Higher Than Expected | Wired Science | Wired.com:

"Tsunamis form when a major earthquake causes a sudden rise or fall in the sea floor which rapidly displaces a large amount of water. A simultaneous rupture of the faults could lead to a far larger earthquake — and more devastating tsunami — than the one in 1964. Because the Yakutat microplate lies beneath a very shallow section of the Pacific Ocean, an earthquake in this region would create a particularly massive wave."
