Alex I: Gonzalez, Frank I. (1996, Sept.23-26). Real-time
tsunami reporting from the deep ocean
Oceans Conference Record (IEEE), 1, 390-394
This journal goes into detail about improvements toward the assessment
of
tsunami hazards. The article suggests that ?Direct measurement of
tsunamis in
the open ocean, followed by real-time reports to warning centers, could
improve
the assessment of tsunami hazard.? It also goes into details of a
working
demonstration of this ?real-time system?
