Figure 1. Calculated tsunami wavefront in the Indian Ocean about two hours
after the Sumatra Earthquake of 26 December, 2004 (courtesy of Kenji Satake,
NIAIS, Japan) together with the altimetry sea-level profile taken along
Track 129 of the Jason-1 satellite during Cycle 109.
Positions of the main shock and following aftershocks are indicated. The solid
red line shows inverse 2-hour wavefront, calculated from the leading edge of
the wavefront point on the satellite track. Grey region denotes the probable
tsunami source area.
