In the authors' words

This journal does not let us republish the full abstract. Here are the two sentences Pipette selected, quoted from it. Read the rest at the publisher.

Main result
Tsunami modeling shows that a range of relative rupture locations can produce the waveform similarity, but only nearly colocated ruptures can explain the travel time similarity.
Limitation the authors admit
Tsunami modeling shows that a range of relative rupture locations can produce the waveform similarity, but only nearly colocated ruptures can explain the travel time similarity.
