Abstract
A detection area determining unit () determines a detection area where there is a possibility that a tsunami occurs. A current velocity estimating unit () estimates, as a sea-surface velocity of current in the detection area, a value obtained by smoothing sea-surface velocity of currents corresponding to cells included in the detection area. A tsunami detecting unit () detects occurrence of the tsunami in the detection area, based on the sea-surface velocity of current estimated by the current velocity estimating unit ().
