Tepco will process the water first to remove radioactive contamination, except for tritium, which cannot be removed.

The new method detects tsunamis by the magnetic fields they generate when moving through the ocean's conductive water. These magnetic fields can be detected a few minutes before rising sea levels, giving a few potentially life-saving extra moments of response time. The first real-world evidence of tsunami magnetic field detection.2021-12-22T13:50+0100interestingengineering-6b0c96dd162f03d6d208f8d70a188dc120211222135000
