Strange. I never remembered tsunami waves as being such a problem before — was it just one time in the last hundred years?

So the satellites that we need to monitor this huge problem will cost how many hundreds of billions of dollars?

Isn’t this money urgently needed in Africa for more programs to determine if washing is effective? So many programs, so hard to choose...

I suspect amateur radio enthusiasts will be all over this... if somewhat embarassedly because after all these years of skip communications they never figured this out.

The whole thing smells like bovine scat.

Hurricanes and cyclones have immense influence on atmospheric pressure, and also are responsible for raising and lowering the surface of the oceans in large swells.

This sounds like another excuse to suck some milk off the federal teat.

Conclusion: de-fund the department that suggests this study for each time they request stuff like this.

Sounds like a mass equivalence thing. The mass of 100 kilometers of ocean X thousand feet deep being lifted 10 centimeters equals some function times the mass of the atmosphere above it... going way, way above it, because the atmosphere is so much less dense than the water.
