The magnitude 8.2 earthquake that struck off the **rthwest coast of Chile on Tuesday night, killing at least six, generated a tsunami that traveled clear across the Pacific Ocean. Fortunately, the tsunami's impacts outside of the coast of South America were minimal, unlike the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2004_Indian_Ocean_earthquake_and_tsunami) that left more than 230,000 dead, and the tsunami that took out the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant (http://mashable.com/2014/03/11/three-years-after-fukushima/?utm_medium=feed&utm_source=rss) in Japan in 2011

This animation from the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center, which is part of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, is a near real-time animation for the tsunami from **rthern Chile. According to **AA, it shows simulated tsunami wave propagation for 30 hours followed by an "energy map" showing the maximum open-ocean wave heights over that period. Read more...
