I'm still eating my smoked Salmon my neighbor caught and made 3 days ago. They said that map is a wave height map from the Japanese Tsunami.

Capt Jack - Thanks. Clicked a few more times and got a link. I've saved it to read later. It really pisses me off when we do this type of destruction.

Don't believe everything you read...
 
That photo is from the NOAA and shows the Tsunami wave interaction and does not represent a radiation reading.

http://nctr.pmel.noaa.gov/honshu20110311/

http://nctr.pmel.noaa.gov/honshu20110311/Energy_plot20110311.png

"The graphics display forecast results, showing qualitative and quantitative information about the tsunami, including tsunami wave interaction with ocean floor bathymetric features, and neighboring coastlines. Tsunami model amplitude information is shown color-coded according the scale bar."

A blatant attempt to make people think that map shows radiation.

Problem is, I love seafood. I really don't appreciate those who think the ocean is just a big "landfill!"

Most folks don't realize that in the early 1900's the prisoners in the northeast rebelled because of what they called inhumane conditions - they were forced to eat lobster several times a day.

Now look what we pay for a lobster dinner. We have over fished this resource.

muebe, we know it's the tsunami map
but this isn't the only article about the radiation still leaking into the Pacific

Yeah but placing that picture on a article about radiation leads people to assume it is a map of the radiation. It is misleading IMHO.

Just read the comments at the bottom of the article. People believed this represented a radiation field.

Now, let's think for a minute.  The amount of radioactivity released by the Japanese disaster was much, much less than what we released in our atomic tests we did over the years in the Pacific as well as the two bombs we dropped on Japan to end WWII.

That IS the point. It is not about WHO did it, it is about the fact it has been done. The ocean is NOT a dump ground.
