| Zusammenfassung |
| This paper investigates the feasibility of Tsunami Early Warning Systems for
small volcanic islands focusing on warning of waves generated by landslides
at the coast of the island itself. The critical concern is if there is enough
time to spread the alarm once the system has recognized that a tsunami has
been generated. We use the results of a large scale physical model experiment
in order to estimate the time that tsunamis take to travel around the island
inundating the coast. We discuss how and where it is convenient to place
instruments for the measurement of the waves. |
