3.3 Maximum tsunami amplitude
The maximum value of tsunami amplitude in a certain place or area during a tsunami process. [Source: HY/T 0281-2020, 4.5]
3.4 Tsunami warning
After an event with the potential to generate a tsunami, such as underwater earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, or underwater cave-ins and landslides, it is expected that tsunamis may affect the forecast area.
It is a warning marine map that contains information such as tsunami generation, tsunami arrival location, tsunami amplitude, and danger level issued when a disaster occurs within the country. forecast. [Source: GB/T 39628-2020, 4.2.9]
