Abstract

The probability of a killer tsunami on the Indian coast may continue to be negligible but the current mega disaster has thrown new light on threat perceptions in the region from distant tsunamis in the Indian Ocean. This should trigger a renewed interest in the study of historic earthquakes and ocean disturbances in the region, so as to generate an appropriate database. There should also be study as to whether, buried in the past records, there was ever a hint of an impending disaster of such magnitude.
