In this paper, we report that the ratio of broadband energy (0.01–2 Hz) to high-frequency energy (0.3–2 Hz), E <Subscript>r</Subscript>, estimated from regional seismograms of India, might be a useful parameter in estimating tsunami potential of earthquakes in the Sumatra–Andaman region. E <Subscript>r</Subscript> is expected to be...</subscript></subscript>
