should continue to study these earthquakes inside and out to gain knowledge on earthquake forecasting, causes, effects, processes, and mitigation. Mathematical models such as MOST can be used to model and recreate tsunamis by inputting information on bathymetry an d initial tsunami propagation conditions into non linear shallow water equations with spherical coordinates (Fritz, et.al., 2011). Recent data previously interpreted to be seismic noise is now considered by seismic geologists to…

Although Mount Fuji carries a giant position in Japanese culture, the tsunami dwarfs Mount Fuji in area, and the sea spray resembles snow falling on to the tip of Mount Fuji. Hokusai paints the size differential to illustrate how much more important to the sailors, the audience’s perspective,…

Preparing for the worst-case scenario is a necessity when dealing with high risk chemicals that can affect everyone around the globe. 81It is very important to incorporate safety measures to estimate tsunami run for nuclear power plant sites. If near the coast, an earthquake will always precede the tsunami. The ground vibrations…
