Tsunami Forecast Model Animation: Sumatra 2004 Tsunami Forecast Model Animation: Sumatra 2004 What countries have the highest simulated tsunami wave amplitude? What are the amplitudes according to the color scale on the left? You may want to open Google Maps for reference in another window. The countries that have the highest simulated amplitude in no particular order are Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia, Myanmar, Bangladesh, and India. The amplitudes that are sorted by color determine if there was a tsunami the places that are red have a high chance of a to the maximum height or size of the waves within the tsunami that will hit them if one occurred. all of them are stored by color going from red meaning dangerous, yellow semi dangerous which is still bad, green which is more doable, and blue being calm. that's How I interpreted it. You may want to open Google Maps for reference in another window. You may also want to change the playback speed under Youtube settings (gear at bottom right of screen) to make these estimates. Approximately how long after the earthquake did the wave to reach northern Sumatra (Aceh, Indonesia) ? 5 minutes approxim

The waves seemed to have arrived at the Thai coast in about half an hour and at the east coast of Sri Lanka in just over 1.5 hours. The waves wrapped around the back side of Sri Lanka (western side toward mainland India) by about 2 hours and 45 minutes after the earthquake. They reached and ran over the Maldives by approximately 3.5 hours after the earthquake. The waves arrived in Somalia at 7 hours, and in Kenya by roughly 8.5 hours after the earthquake. Question 3 0 / 2 pts Approximately how long after the earthquake did the wave to reach the west coast of Thailand ? 40 minutes Approximately how long after the earthquake did the wave to reach Sri Lanka ? 7 hours 30 minutes Approximately how long after the earthquake did the wave to reach The Maldives ? 3 hours Approximately how long after the earthquake did the wave to reach Kenya ? 7 hours and 40 min Now go back to the NOAA Natural Hazards Viewer.
