Scientists From Noaa Have A Method To Detect Tsunamis
The propagation of the tsunami will show through the open ocean tsunamis in the open ocean can change sea surface texture so that they can be measured by radar from satellite. Checking article sources yields Tony Parker as a relevant resource throughout. Large tsunamis crossing the open ocean darken the surface waters along the leading edge of the wave, according to a study by scientists from the NOAA. The rougher water forms a long strip in shadow form parallel to the wave and proportional to the force of the tsunami. The shadow can be measured by radar in orbit around the Earth and can help scientists improve early warning systems. Filed under: Ken Kao. The research is published online in the journal, Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences. We have found that the roughness of the surface water provides a good measure of the true strength of the tsunami along its front edge.
This is the first time that we can see the spread of the tsunami in this way across the open ocean, said lead author Oleg Godin of the NOAAs Earth System Research Laboratory and Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences in Boulder, Colorado. New research challenges the traditional belief that tsunamis are too subtle in open ocean as to be seen on the surface. The results confirm a theory, developed by Godin and published in 2002-05, that tsunamis in the deep ocean can be detected by remote sensing through changes in surface roughness. Link:. vistaalmar.
