Tsunami warning systems can cost between $13million and $200 million to purchase and maintain. The system in the Indian ocean is a system of buoys that measure the water above a column and a satellite to analysis whether there is likelihood of a tsunami.
There was little to no warning about the coming of the earthquake and tsunami that hit Japan on March 2011.
The Boxing Day tsunami in 2004 was particularly devastating because it originated from a massive undersea earthquake, known as a megathrust earthquake, which generated a powerful tsunami. While we have advanced technology for tsunami warning systems, the speed at which this tsunami occurred and the difficulty in predicting the exact scale and impact of such rare events made it challenging to issue timely warnings.
the only thing i see is that the in wthe city they only felt the ground shacking that doesn't dosent seem right to man adt can it likr give u more info about a warning something that would get the peopls interested into krkatoa volcano
It depends on the size of the earthquake. If it was just a very very minor shudder, then it would not make much of a tsunami, nor would it go very far. However, if there is an earthquake like the one that just hit Japan, then that could cross the pacific ocean.
-500 kilometre wave wrecked havoc throughout the area-struck at 8am meaning many were still asleep-building quality not strong enough-no medication-water born diseases-no early warning system

That really depends on how much damage it caused. But a tsunami as devastating as the one that just hit japan, would cost hundreds of billions.add I understand that some coastal land in Hawaii has been cleared from development because of too-frequent tsunami impact. Very sensible.

Because scientist don't have a scale that measures tsunami very wellanswer 2. Many times the earthquake (or submarine subsidence) that caused the tsunami are quite close, and there is insufficient warning time.If you are close to a shore and you feel a significant earthquake, expect a tsunami!! If the sea retreats, DO NOT go to gather the fish!!.Tsunami travel at several hundred km/hour! But may be only a few cm high.Approaching a shore, the wave increases in height, and decreases in speed.But is still much faster than you can run.

A tsunami earthquakeis an earthquake that triggers a tsunami of a magnitude that is very much larger than the magnitude of the earthquake as measured by shorter-period seismic waves. The term was introduced by Hiroo Kanamori in 1972.Such events are a result of relatively slow rupture velocities. They are particularly dangerous as a large tsunami may arrive at a neighbouring coast with little or no warning.
I really do not know and I guessed on the answers.
