The New Zealand Herald reported that waves up to 6 meters (20 feet) high hit the island. The northeast shoreline (facing the earthquake epicenter) received the most damage, followed by the towns of Hihifo and Felehau. Nine residents were killed.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/NaturalHazards/view.php?id=40875&src=eorss-nh"><P>These false-color images were acquired by the Advanced Spaceborne Imaging Spectroradiometer <A href="http://asterweb.jpl.nasa.gov/">(ASTER)</A> aboard NASA’s <A href="http://terra.nasa.gov/">Terra</A> satellite on October 19, 2009, (top) and July 25, 2006 (bottom). Vegetation is red, while bare ground is pale blue-gray. In the 2009 image, the dark red area along the eastern side of the island likely indicates damaged or inundated vegetation. In both images, clouds and breaking waves are white or cyan. The elevation of the Sun in the sky was markedly different in each image, resulting in ocean water appearing dark blue in the 2009 image and almost black in 2006.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;"> </td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/F84D1796-93D7-4DCD-B8BB-49C3AF03A983/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
