State tsunami advisers covet wave-height forecasting system
Japan's tsunami scientists now are able to forecast tsunami wave heights in different coastal areas -- a significant advance in warning technology. "Unfortunately, we do not have that ability in Hawaii," said Daniel A. Walker, Oahu Civil Defense Agency tsunami adviser. The Japanese development was
