Joseph, A. - Tsunamis: detection, monitoring and early-warning technology.
Amsterdam: Elsevier Academic Press, 2011
The devastating consequences of the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami brought the subject of marine research into focus, and the recent tragic events in Japan as well as the complex and unpredictable nature of tsunamis in general make this book an interesting and unfortunately topical read.
Antony Joseph pulls together recent research on tsunamis, their causes and behaviour, with a special focus on detection and monitoring, by comparing a range of databases and warning and monitoring systems from around the world.
