Geological summary

Acoustic signals (T-waves) from a seismic swarm were detected in 1990 from a source along the Udintsev fracture zone at about 143°W, along the segment that corresponds with the Pacific-Antarctic Ridge (Global Volcanism Network Bulletin, 1990). The seismicity may have been linked to volcanic activity.
