Unless the earthquake displaces UP in a specific fault movement there won't be a tsunami.

The location is not the issue, except, for the population that lives at lower elevations and near the shoreline.


The Christmas Tsunami is on this blog in 2004. I wrote about it more than I care to remember. Too many people died. Far too many. At least today the people along the shorelines run and know what they are facing. If that is the only legacy to the dead, then let it be so.


...NDMA vice president Sashidhar Reddy (click title to entry - thank you) said no waves had so far been noticed in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands....


There are bathymetric survey's of Earths crust under the oceans, but, no can control the movement of the plates on liquid magma. I do know 'hard rock' geology doesn't lend itself to 'prediction' either. There was a study some time ago by a female scientist in California whereby wave motion was linked to land movement in a micro study. I don't know if she plans to extrapolate the methods of the study or if she can. But, it is oceanography and the study of the water and its relationship with the land that will ultimately diagnose the plate movement in some sort of predictability. Today, the issues of land and ocean are primarily separate studies of science. FLUID MECHANICS where it applies to HARD ROCK is where it is at. And if anyone believes land doesn't become FLUID during seismic activity they are in profound denial of what occurs. HARD ROCK of Earth's crust sits on liquid HOT ROCK.


Enough.
