Brit.

/ˌmakrəʊˈsʌɪzmɪk/, U.S.

/ˈˌmækroʊˈsaɪzmɪk/

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: macro- comb. form, seismic adj.

Etymology: < macro- comb. form + seismic adj., after macroseism n. Compare earlier microseismic adj.

Geology.

Of the nature of or relating to a macroseism; (in modern use) designating or relating to those effects of an earthquake that are perceptible without the aid of instruments.
