What It Is

Log inter-event times of ~35k Tohoku 2011 M≥2 aftershocks --- Omori-law decay with temporal clustering, 3 months post-mainshock (ISC/JMA catalog, public domain)

Interpretation

Standard analysis sees: left-skewed; high-complexity (noise-like). The atlas finds no named structure, but the source is distinctively extreme on Ulam Spiral (Square):polynomial_concentration (-2.1z) — beyond what the standard bank predicts for it.
