Tsunami model amplitude information is shown colour-coded to the scale. Filled colours show maximum computed tsunami amplitude in cm during 24 hours of wave propagation. Black contours show computed tsunami arrival time. . Are You Prepared To Ride It Out? We have heard it so many times –the “big one” is coming. In our lifetime, we still haven’t seen or felt that huge earthquake. That shouldn’t stop us from preparing. Andrei Gabrielov. Purdue University.

According to A.N. . Strahler. and A.H. . Strahler. ,(1976), ‘An earthquake is a vibration or oscillation of the surface of the earth caused by a transient disturbance of the elastic or gravitational equilibrium of the rocks at or beneath the earth the surface’..
