PMEL is a leader in developing ocean observational systems to address NOAA's mission
It carries out interdisciplinary scientific investigations in oceanography and atmospheric science. Current PMEL programs focus on open ocean observations in support of long-term monitoring and prediction of the ocean environment on time scales from hours to decades. Studies are conducted to improve our understanding of the complex physical and geochemical processes operating in the world oceans, to define the forcing functions and the processes driving ocean circulation and the global climate system, and to improve environmental forecasting capabilities and other supporting services for marine commerce and fisheries. Results from PMEL research activities contribute to NOAA's strategic goals of implementing seasonal-to-interannual climate forecasts, assessing and predicting decadal to centennial climate change, advancing short-term warning and forecast services.

This site is dedicated to the investigation of the natural disasters called tsunamis. Here at USC we are actively involved with all aspects of tsunami research; field surveys, numerical and analytical modeling, as well as hazard mitigation and planning. The Tsunami Research Group is part of the Department of Civil Engineering at the University of Southern California where undergraduate and graduate academic programs, in water resources and coastal engineering, are offered.

Tsunamis and Tsunami Research at Institute of Ocean Sciences, Sidney BC, Canada. This webpage introduces the general information about tsunamis and tsunami research at IOS/PGC.
In the first part, you could find the basic physics of tsunamis, big historical tsunami events, the local tsunami source - Cascadia subduction zone - in coastal British Columbia and some useful links to additional information on Tsunamis including how to protect yourself from tsunamis.
The second part introduces the tsunami model, and displays the animations of modelling results.
