Discussions at the UC Berkeley Seismology Lab focused on "slow slip" and earthquakes on the nearby Hayward fault (with a visit afterwards at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory), the Bay Area CERT Coalition, funding opportunities, and plans for the Loma Prieta 35th anniversary.
Learn about the evolution of the tsunami warning system, how climate change affects earthquake risk, funding opportunities to support your activities, and more!
Learn about tsunami hazards in California - where they may start, and updated tsunami hazard maps. Then learn about tsunami alerts and warnings, the state's planned response, as well as what to do before, during, and after a tsunami.
All Californians are encouraged to plan and register their #TsunamiPrep activities (at work, school, and home) to be counted as part of California’s 2024 Tsunami Preparedness Week (March 23 – 31) - or on any other day of the year!
