"The amplitude and periodicity of sea level oscillations in a basin are determined by its geometry and physical features. Each closed or semi-closed basin has a set of natural (eigen) modes that can be generated by external forcing and incoming open-ocean waves. The complicated coastline of British Columbia has a diversity of topographic features, including islands, straits, bays, fjords and waterways. These features can strongly amplify incoming tsunami waves, as occurred in Port Alberni, located at the head of the long and narrow Alberni Inlet, during the 1964 Alaska tsunami"--Abstract, page iv.
