A powerful tsunami seen from space is overturning what scientists thought they knew about how these waves travel.
On July 29, 2025, a magnitude 8.8 earthquake shook the Kamchatka Peninsula in Russia, generating a tsunami that propagated ...
This image captures the modeled propagation of the tsunami wave generated by an 8.8 magnitude megathrust earthquake off the coast of Kamchatcka, Russia on July 29,2025. When an 8.8 magnitude ...
A new era in tsunami observation arrived July 29, 2025, when the NASA-CNES Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite happened to be passing over the Pacific Ocean just as a strong 8.8 ...
This animation shows the simulated tsunami wave heights generated by the M8.8 earthquake. Around 70 minutes after the earthquake, the path of the SWOT satellite appears, shown in slow motion to ...
Scientists at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) have helped develop an advanced, real-time tsunami forecasting system — powered by El Capitan, the world’s fastest supercomputer — that ...
