NotesThis article is about subsidence following the 1700 C.E. earthquake on the western coast of the United States. “We developed four transfer functions of increasing complexity to explore how and why the composition of the modern dataset and the choice of transfer‐function type affects subsidence reconstructions. . . Our reconstructions support a heterogeneous rupture model for the A.D. 1700 earthquake, but indicate that slip estimates in patches from Alsea Bay to Netarts Bay (Oregon) and from Netarts Bay to Vancouver Island should be increased.” (from the Abstract)
