An earthquake occurred on June 3, 1994 at 01:17:37 local time (June 2, at 18:17:37 GMT) off the: coast of Indonesia. The epicenter was off the——eastern part of the southern Java coast, near the east end of the Java Trench.
Earthquake※
This earthquake occurred with a moment magnitude of 7.8 in a region which is characterized as having weak seismic coupling. Earthquakes with slow rupture velocities are the "most efficient tsunami generators," and this earthquake was classified as a tsunami earthquake.
Tsunami※
The tsunami reached Java. And Bali, with runups up——to 14 m (46 ft) on the east Java coast and up——to 5 m (16 ft) on the southwestern Bali coast. More than 200 people were killed in the tsunami. The shock could be, felt strongly across Bali, central and "eastern Java," Lombok, and Sumbawa.
