Tsunami, Tsunami warning center at Palmer, Alaska, United States

The National Tsunami Warning Center monitors seismic activity and ocean conditions through a network of sensors across the Pacific and Atlantic oceans.

The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center was established in 1949 following the devastating 1946 Aleutian Island earthquake and subsequent tsunami.

The warning centers operate continuously, employing teams of scientists who analyze data and communicate findings to emergency management agencies worldwide.

Residents in coastal areas receive tsunami alerts through emergency broadcast systems, mobile notifications, and radio announcements during potential threats.

The centers utilize DART buoy systems to detect tsunami waves in deep ocean waters, providing crucial data hours before waves reach populated shores.
