This grant is offered by the US Geological Survey to a CESU partner for research on identifying and mapping standardized earthquake and landslide tsunami sources for the U.S. The aim is to create authoritative hazards mitigation products such as inundation zones, evacuation plans, and tsunami playbooks. The research will result in a collection of vetted and standardized sources for effective tsunami hazard mitigation and risk reduction, improving tsunami hazard planning efforts and products used for mitigation and land-use planning. Applications are open until November 14, 2018.

Description: | The US Geological Survey, John Wesley Powell Center for Analysis and Synthesis, is offering a funding opportunity to a CESU partner for research to identify, map, and produce risk assessments for standardized earthquake and landslide tsunami sources for the U.S. The effort will provide a foundation for authoritative hazards mitigation products, including inundation zones, evacuation plans, tsunami playbooks, and land-use and construction planning. The goal is to produce a collection of vetted and standardized earthquake and landslide tsunami sources that can be used to produce the meaningful hazard assessment products required for effective tsunami hazard mitigation and risk reduction. The process of analyzing these vetted sources include: 1) determination of various tsunami hazard planning efforts (evacuation, mitigation, land-use, etc.) and U.S. regions in need of standardized sources; 2) evaluation of existing tsunami sources used in tsunami hazard products; and 3) characterization of the sources in both a deterministic and probabilistic sense which meets the needs of tsunami hazard planning efforts. |
