The South-East Asia Earthquake and Tsunami Blog
The South-East Asia Earthquake and Tsunami Blog is a blog that I’ve watched ever since the day it first began. They point to a load of good information on the after effects of the Tsunami including some saltellite images from some of the areas impacted (links below). Take a while to look through their archives for a bit - pretty challenging stuff.
- Sri Lanka Maps and Satellite Images
- Thailand Maps and Satellite Images
- Indonesia Maps and Satellite Images

They also link to a number of articles from around the web that speak of some of the other after affects being suffered by survivors of the Tsunami.
‘The World Health Organisation today warned that the problem of psychological trauma among the tsunami-affected might be more serious than what was so far believed. Unless urgent action was taken, the long-term effect on the victims could be “terrible.”
Citing reports from health workers who had been in the tsunami-hit areas, the WHO said that virtually everyone who had been affected by the natural disaster appeared to be suffering from some form of psychosocial trauma or other and needed support.’
