Opportunity Information: Apply for NOAA NWS NWSPO 2011 2002833
The Meteotsunami Warning Project, led by NOAA's Tsunami Program, aims to enhance coastal safety by addressing the risks posed by meteotsunamis—wave events generated by meteorological conditions rather than earthquakes, which have historically caused significant threats in some areas. While traditional tsunami warnings focus on earthquake-generated tsunamis, there is currently no system in the U.S. to monitor or alert communities about meteotsunamis. This research grant opportunity seeks proposals to achieve four main goals:
1. Investigate the factors and environmental conditions that have historically led to meteotsunamis. 2. Identify the necessary observational, communication, and processing systems for monitoring meteotsunami formation. 3. Develop an effective protocol for issuing warnings for meteotsunami threats along the U.S. coast.
The project highlights the need for a comprehensive approach to enhance preparedness and community resilience against these lesser-known but dangerous wave events.Apply for NOAA NWS NWSPO 2011 2002833
