Four Fukushima questions

摘要

As I look back over the news coverage and reports I have read over past 11 months-and I admit I do benefit from hindsight here-there are still many things I do not understand about the Fukushima Daiichi accident and response. Below I have put the top four things I would like to know. Tsunami preparation. I appreciate that immediately after the station was hit by the earthquake, all attention would have focused on post-earthquake recovery, especially after the many issues that electrical utility TEPCO's Kashiwazaki-Kariwa station faced following the Chuetsu earthquake of 2004. Apparently, the unusual behaviour of waves at the seashore indicate an impending tsunami.
