@Edano thats what i thought but it is there in red at 14.45

@elainekirk : i guess it's a shaking alarm, not radiation. maybe combined monitors.
by Edano 7/24/2011 10:56:08 PM

@Edano well is there any that still need finding?

M.6.2 Quake hits Miyagi and Fukushima

An aftershock from the March 11th earthquake with an estimated magnitude of 6.2 hit Fukushima and Miyagi prefectures in northeastern Japan at 3:51 AM local time on Monday.

The depth of focus of the earthquake, which occurred off the coast of Fukushima Prefecture, was 40 kilometers.

The Meteorological Agency says there is no danger of a tsunami.

In Ishinomaki City, Miyagi Prefecture, Soma City and Nara Town, both in Fukushima Prefecture, an intensity of 5 minus was registered on the Japanese scale of 0 to 7.

Shocks registering lower intensities were recorded throughout wide areas of Japan from Hokkaido to the Tokai region.

Gov. releases radiation forecast system data

Japan's nuclear watchdog has released results of their analysis on how radioactive substances spread after the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant accident.

The Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency released data analyzed by a computer forecasting system designed to track the movement of radioactive substances based on wind and weather.

The System for Prediction of Environmental Emergency Dose Information, or SPEEDI, calculated 6 days' worth of data, from March 12th through 17th.

The results show the amount of radioactive substances in the atmosphere, external exposures and accumulation on the ground.

A map from March 12th, a day after the disaster, shows radioactive substances first flowed towards the southeast and then gradually moved north.

The Agency says it calculated the data based on updated figures obtained from the nuclear reactors through June.

The 600 pages of information are available on the internet.

The Agency will provide all the data to Fukushima Prefecture. It wants to use the information when conducting health research for its residents to estimate their amount of radiation exposure.

@elainekirk I love it when something so simple works so well.

@lillymunster certainly and it motivates people to keep battling on.

@Edano @lillymunster just a thought but these #5 charts I am not searching by unit so I should get a random selection but #5 is churning out most docs and this seems to be showing quake problems to my untrained eye www.tepco.co.jp
by elainekirk 7/24/2011 11:20:40 PM

@Edano I think you have found out that they may be using early speedi data then instead of issuing new data they plan to computer simulate predictions which will show a downward trend due to it being a flippin con!! just my take on it

@elainekirk Really appreciated your finds! Enjoy coffee...need to step away, will try to pop back in later.

@smoss it looks worst than ever from that angle
by elainekirk 7/24/2011 11:57:32 PM

@Edano , just in the by, I gleaned from the NISA report that you can use speedi without knowing the precise amounts of radioactivity emitted and still be able to predict where the fallout is going to be highest. Only the GoJ people did not know that. They believed that without precise radioactivity input, speedi's predictions would be worthless. Because tepco was unable to provide the radiation released for the input to speedi, it was not the governments fault that they could not give people notice.

by Edano 7/25/2011 12:09:46 AM

@Peter Melzer The SPEEDI projections proved to be very accurate as dispersal pattern projections, and had they looked at them as useful even without initial terms, they'd have known what kind of exclusion zones to draw and where to look for contaminated rice straw. "How could we have possibly anticipated...?" 'Who could have imagined...? "It was beyond our expectations" Cripes, they could have asked us. Surely there must have been someone awake enough to foresee the consequences of avoidance as a strategy.
by RadioGuy 7/25/2011 12:16:58 AM

But then, I guess they had such cozy rapports with the industry, they believed TEPCOs worthless assurances.
by RadioGuy 7/25/2011 12:18:55 AM

@RadioGuy They were also heavily in denial mode either within their ranks or at least outward at the public back then. Everything is fine, just a minor repair, everything will be be great if a few days...
by lillymunster 7/25/2011 12:20:32 AM

How is it that this fall-together collective, and Ars Technica and Fairewinds and so many others looked at the meager data available to us and accurately identified the points of breach, and meltdown and melt-through, yet they, having access to all of the data, allegedly had no clue? "What did you want us to do? Just yell RUN!!?" Well, yes, frankly. ;)
by RadioGuy 7/25/2011 12:29:16 AM

@RadioGuy Run would have been good. Full on shrieking panic would have been acceptable as long as it was with honest information. They should have evacuated a much larger area with the concept that if they over reacted they can always reopen an area.

@RadioGuy, did not Kan's staff state they did not even know about speedi? Probably Kan grasped the severity of the situation only on his visit to the plant on Saturday morning after the quake. In addition, I give him some slack for having to deal with the enormous devastation of the tsunami. But then the government should have been better prepared for a nuclear reactor accident, once it was clear there was one on Saturday afternoon. This was not the first one in the history of nuclear power.

@elainekirk , let us not forget to tell Dean where to find the transient recordings.
by Peter Melzer 7/25/2011 1:29:09 AM

@Peter Melzer Yes, all governments including Kan's should have been better prepared for a nuclear disaster. I think we can all also agree that the united international response has been abysmal. I do have to seriously question what our own governments would do, and indeed have been doing, to inform and protect us.
