Developing new ways to observe tsunami contributes to tsunami research. Tidal and deep‐ocean gauges are typically used for coastal and offshore observations. Recently, tsunami‐induced ground tilts offer a new possibility. The ground tilt signal accompanied by 2010 Mw 8.8 Chilean earthquake were observed at a tiltmeter network in Japan. However, tiltmeter stations are usually not as widely installed as broadband seismometers in other countries. Here, we studied broadband seismic records from Japan’s F‐net and found ground tilt signals consistent with previously published tiltmeter dataset for this particular tsunamic event. Similar waveforms can also be found in broadband seismic networks in other countries, such as Taiwan, as well as an ocean‐bottom seismometer. We documented a consistent time sequence of evolving back‐azimuth directions of the tsunami waves at different stages of tsunami propagation through beamforming‐frequency–wavenumber analysis and particle‐motion analysis; the outcomes are consistent with the tsunami propagation model provided by the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center. These results shown that dense broadband seismic networks can provide a useful complementary dataset, in addition to tiltmeter arrays and other networks, to study or even monitor tsunami propagation using arrayed methods.
