The article talks about the Soloviev & Go catalogue how it wasn't taken into account: "Presumably on the basis of these studies, [Soloviev & Go] assigned it a tsunami intensity I=4, which is one of their highest values for Japan tsunamis. Yet, in the aftermath of the Fukushima accident, it has been argued repeatedly that the Jōgan tsunami had not been documented until 2001 [17], well after the design of the NPP"
