- Abstract
The article presents information on tsunami warning systems. Costas Synolakis, a tsunami expert at the University of Southern California stated that warning system operated well in terms of reliability of forecast, but its implementation had large loopholes. Burak Uslu, a tsunami modeller with the Pacific Marine and Environmental Laboratory (PMEL) in Seattle, Washington used a mathematical model to predict when waves would come, how high they would be and how much dry land would be flooded.
