The tsunami warning system of the Indian Ocean works by detecting earthquakes automatically and informing 26 countries around the Indian Ocean through the UNESCO. Japan and Hawaii are responsible for receiving earthquake information and announcing warnings through news and telegrams. Individual countries are then responsible for informing their people through methods like email, social media, bells, loudspeakers, radio, and television. The system aims to reduce loss of life from tsunamis by quickly disseminating warnings.
