techrights-news"Ayataka Ebita, the head of the JMA's earthquake and tsunami observation division, said at a press briefing that the agency's system had erroneously placed the quake's epicenter off the Kuril Islands and overestimated its magnitude, triggering the initial warning. The agency ruled out a possible cyberattack."Oct 18 20:27
techrights-news""We are currently investigating the cause and will provide an explanation as soon as it is determined," Ebita said."Oct 18 20:27
techrights-news"JMA said at another briefing that the cause of overestimation was due to applying a magnitude formula designed for domestic earthquakes to one occurring far from Japan. It also used different estimated quake locations to calculate the magnitude and predict shaking, although both calculations should have used the same location. Further details remained under investigation."Oct 18 20:27
