- Purpose of use
- Determine length of time for longwave regime (h/\lambda<<1)Tsunami to travel from Valparaıso, Chile to Hawaii. This modelling process has application in climate modelling and emergency response time which has vast implications for national security across the pacific. The authors would like to acknowledge this useful online tool, as well as funding secured from national grant no. 2.64 under the 2017 Climate SN Committee.
