Scientists monitor tsunamis with the seismometer in both Japan and the United. When the seismometer detects a large, shallow earthquake below the ocean, they issue a tsunami warning to surrounding Coastlines.

Very poorly. The only warning shows on seismographs of an undersea earthquake and landslide, then it is a matter of calculating time of arrival at places at various distances from the origin.

Data is compiled using data from satellites, weather buoys, and hurricane reconnaissance aircraft. This information is then fed into computerized forecast models. each model makes its own forecast, which meteorologists then interpret and compare with other models.
