Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory (PMEL)

This week we marked the 14th anniversary of the 2011 Tohoku-Honshu Japan earthquake and tsunami. The tsunami was first detected by the NOAA Center for Tsunami Research (NCTR) team at PMEL, resulting in inundation forecasts for Hawaii and the Pacific coast 6 hours before the tsunami arrived. This award-winning PMEL-based team led the way to the establishment of a tsunami warning network worldwide. Explore the Tsunami playlist on PMEL’s YouTube channel here: https://lnkd.in/gEMxEkSY

With last week's sizable earthquake off of California and the associated issuance of a tsunami warning, this is an opportune time to highlight the science behind tsunamis. Thankfully, a sizable tsunami did not materialize from that earthquake and the warning was quickly cancelled. The event underscored the importance of our Pacific observing system for tsunamis and the science done by NOAA: National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration's Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory (PMEL) that underpins our ability to detect these events and warn those that may be in harms way. #noaa #tsunami #research
