TOKYO: Japan has lifted all the tsunami warnings and advisories put in place after a major quake on New Year's Day, a meteorological agency official told AFP on Tuesday.

Small changes to tidal levels are still possible, the official said, a day after the strong jolt in central Japan triggered tsunami waves over a metre high.
