Design Decisions: False Alarms My proposed design had (insert #) false alarms. My goal was to have 0 or 1
false alarms; therefore, that goal. However, I knew false
alarms might be acceptable over 50 years. Based on my research, I knew that
(type of) sensors give alarms for any earthavake over
7.0, but the data from this type of sensor was less reliable, so we only used
(insert #). We also learned that type of) sensors give false
alarms for local tsunamis, but we found that they broke easily. Therefore, I kept
the false alarms low by placing some shallow sensors further away from local . We also used (insert #) deep sensor(s). Since the deep sensor(s)
was/were far enough from local
or other plate
it/they
was/were not involved in any false alarm cases?
