In this report we present new probabilistic seismic hazard maps for Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands (fig. 1). These two United States territories, together composing the Mariana Islands group, lie in the western North Pacific Ocean along the Mariana arc about three quarters of the distance from Hawaii to the Philippines and halfway between Japan and New Guinea.
