How the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center Works
The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center (PTWC) provides tsunami warnings for Hawaiʻi, American Samoa, Guam, Commonwealth of Northern Marianas, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. and British Virgin Islands, and international threat advice for countries across the Pacific and the Caribbean. For local warnings, PTWC does this within a few minutes after an earthquake, and for distant tsunamis, information is issued within seven minutes. How?
Dr. Nathan Becker, Senior Oceanographer, describes PTWC’s operations.
