The massive tsunami triggered by an undersea earthquake in the Indian Ocean literally rippled around the world. NOAA scientist Vasily Titov, using seismic data, rendered an animation showing how the tsunami waves propagated across the Earth. Some of the waves reached the United States and many other nations outside the Indian Ocean.
       
                 
               
                 
        Titov used the numerical model called Method of Splitting Tsunami, or MOST. He used this model hours after the tsunami first struck showing the quake’s epicenter and how the tsunami moved across the Indian Ocean.
