Sentence examples for tsunami stations from inspiring English sources

Figure 2 The locations of GPS ground stations and tsunami stations in Hawaii.

The installation of additional offshore tsunami stations having an appropriate spacing (e.g., Tsushima et al., 2009) can produce a better azimuthal coverage and resolve the problem.

The initial warnings are sometimes updated taking into consideration observed tsunami heights at offshore tsunami stations or coastal tide-gauge stations.

We retrospectively applied an algorithm of near-field tsunami forecasting to tsunami data that were recorded at various offshore tsunami stations 5 10 min before the tsunami reached the coastal tide-gauge stations nearest to its source.

Dense ocean-bottom seismic and tsunami stations (indicated by circles) are being constructed off the Pacific coast of northeastern Honshu, Japan (e.g. Uehira et al., 2012; Kanazawa, 2013) and dense seismic stations (indicated by squares) are being operated on land (Okada et al., 2004; Obara et al., 2005) by the National Research Institute for Earth Science and Disaster Prevention NIEDD).

For the tFISH algorithm, the area over which the initial sea-surface displacement is estimated (the "influence area", hereafter) is defined as the area surrounded by the back-propagated wavefronts from each of the offshore tsunami stations that is based on the full propagation (Tsushima et al., 2009).

But power companies must submit results of "stress tests" that evaluate a reactor's defenses against earthquakes, tsunamis, station blackouts and the loss of water for cooling — and they must get a go-ahead from local the government.

These large tsunamis were clearly observed at offshore tsunami observation stations around Japan, such as cabled ocean-bottom pressure gauges (OBPGs) (e.g., Meteorological Research Institute, 1980) and GPS buoys (e.g., Kato et al., 2005), as well as by the worldwide Deep-ocean Assessment and Reporting of Tsunamis (DART) buoy systems (e.g., Titov et al., 2005).

In order to explain the observed offshore tsunami at stations TM1 and TM2 shown in Fig. 1(b), we first examined the case of a uniform slip of 15 m over the entire 12 sub-fault segments and we calculated the co-seismic ground elevation above the source area and the tsunami waveform at TM1 and TM2.

We deserve to know why Libya is more worthy of deficit spending than is just about every social program in America, including the National Parks, NIH, CDC, Planned Parenthood, WIC, tsunami warning stations, NOAA and all the rest of it.

The main part of the chapter lists the sequence of events from the earthquake and tsunami, to station blackout, hydrogen explosion, and finally how personnel succeeded in keeping the multiple reactors cooled.
