It was located at 43.97° N, 148.22° E with a depth of 33 km. It generated a tsunami, and a peak-to-trough tsunami wave height of 18 cm was recorded in Hanasaki, Japan. Tsunami A numerical simulation of the tsunami suggested that the first wave was caused by a significant subsidence north of the Kuril Islands due to the earthquake."Generation of Tsunamis in the Okhotsk Sea Caused by the 1994 Great Kuril Earthquake" by Y.
