The relationship between compressional wave amplitude and the intensity of a seismic event is that the amplitude of compressional waves is directly related to the energy released during the seismic event. A higher amplitude indicates a stronger seismic event with greater intensity.
An archipelago is a cluster/group of islands (which Japan is). Seismic waves are the waves caused by movements of the Earth's plates, in other words, they are earthquakes. Japan is notorious/ well- known for the amount of earthquakes it has. This is why its called a seismic archipelago.
An earthquake could also be called a seismic event.
refraction event is a stright line and reflection is a hyperbolic event
Earthquakes are the most common earth event that creates seismic waves. When rocks break and move along a fault line, energy is released in the form of seismic waves that travel through the Earth's crust, leading to earthquakes.
It is more LIKELY to have a likely event than a UNLIKELY event.
A likely event, mathematically, is more then 50% likely to happen. An unlikely event is less then 50% likely to happen.

The likely word is "seismic" (sound vibrations from underground rocks).
