… by modern equipment . Ash blanketed the region. A tsunami wave caused damage and killed at least three people on the … century has produced a global-scale tsunami. The tsunami wave from the underwater eruption was first predicted as only a regional hazard. Instead, the wave reached as far as Peru, where two people drowned . …
… darken the surface waters along the leading edge of the wave, according to the study. The rougher water forms a long, shadow-like strip parallel to the wave and proportional to the strength of the tsunami. That … shadow was captured by video from shore moments before the wave struck Hawaii. That observation and earlier written …
… 30 years. These new measurements show that global average wave conditions are increasing but, more importantly, extreme wave conditions are increasing even more rapidly with the … over the 30 year period. These changes in ocean wind and wave climates were determined by creating and analysing a …
… NASA and European radar satellites captured at least two wave fronts that day. The fronts merged to form a single, double-high wave far out at sea. This wave was capable of traveling long distances without losing …
… information that is needed to determine whether a giant wave has actually been created takes time to gather. That is … risk. Contrariwise, issuing a warning when no subsequent wave arrives provokes cynicism and a tendency to ignore … earthquakes, and tide gauges and special buoys to track a wave’s passage. That is reliable, but can often be too late …
