註釋

Inspired by recent catastrophic tsunamis, the authors have graphically presented the results of their research through color maps and photographs depicting the 94 cities in 20 counties located in tsunami-prone areas up and down the California coast. Charts and data tables classify the at-risk populations as permanent residents, estimated visitors, and commuting employees. As a benchmark for measuring the danger level to individual communities, the authors have developed a composite index number, derived from the amount of developed land and the number of people and businesses.
