DETECTION OF TSUNAMI RADIATION AT ILLAPEL, CHILE ON 2015-9-16 BY REMOTE SENSING

We have detected the Tsunami Radiation generated by the 8.3 magnitude seaquake at Illapel, Chile on 2015-9-16 at the following wavelengths: 3.9 [mu]m, 6.5 [mu]m, 10.7 [mu]m, and 13.3 [mu]m. No radiation is detected at 0.63 [mu]m, which is in the visible spectrum. The Tsunami Signals that we have obs...

Description
Summary:We have detected the Tsunami Radiation generated by the 8.3 magnitude seaquake at Illapel, Chile on 2015-9-16 at the following wavelengths: 3.9 [mu]m, 6.5 [mu]m, 10.7 [mu]m, and 13.3 [mu]m. No radiation is detected at 0.63 [mu]m, which is in the visible spectrum. The Tsunami Signals that we have observed did not decay within 44 minutes. From the satellite the Peru-Chilean Trench is visible in infrared space. In order to facilitate research in this field we attach the MATLAB code in an Appendix.
