  • How to make a tsunami

    You can go to http://ocean.dmi.dk/apps/tsunami/ to make a tsunami.

    The source code to the tsunami web server slowmo has just been released in a new version. Please try it out if you have some experience with Python and let me know about any issues and what you think about it.

  • slowmo release 1.1.3: Higher accuracy

    Simple Long Ocean Wave Model (slowmo) 1.1.3 has been released. Slowmo is an application to calculate and plot tsunami travel times.

    The main features of this release are

    - More accurate formula for calculation of tsunami travel times.

    - The slowmo tsunami web server now cleans up temporary files.

    - Option (--local) to run slowmo without installing it.

  • slowmo release 1.1.2: Easier installation

    Simple Long Ocean Wave Model (slowmo) 1.1.2 has been released. Slowmo is an application to calculate and plot tsunami travel times.

    The main feature of this release is that the bathymetry is now read from the original binary file instead of a NetCDF (format widely used in earth science) file.

    It is therefore no longer necessary to install ScientificPython and dependencies used by ScientificPython anymore. Hopefully this will ease the installation of slowmo somewhat. Please see http://slowmo.sf.net/install.php for installation details.

    Another change is that a method for calculating the distance between to adjacent bathymetry grid points has been changed to the more accurate great circle distance. Previously an approximation was used.

  • slowmo user feedback request

    If you are using slowmo or considering doing so I would like you comments on:

    - Do you prefer a graphical web interface or an ordinary graphical user interface?

    (I would like to remove the ordinary graphical user interface if no-one uses it - no need to have feature creep)

    - What parts of slowmo would like to see improved?

    You can either send me your comments on jesperlarsen@users.sourceforge.net or comment on this news item.
