The US Geological Survey (USGS) is offering a grant opportunity to a Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) partner for critical research. This funding aims to support studies on ecosystem and wildlife health, and the natural resource impacts affecting California’s west coast. The focus is on the Tsunami Scenario, a hypothetical but realistic M~9.0 earthquake originating from the Eastern Aleutian Islands, which is being developed for emergency planning purposes. As part of its broader efforts, the USGS is collaborating with various agencies. This collaboration seeks to thoroughly explore the most significant implications of a distant tsunami disaster, ultimately aiming to improve preparedness and reduce vulnerability for affected communities and environments in California.

Description: | The US Geological Survey is offering a funding opportunity to a CESU partner for the study of ecosystem and wildlife health, and natural resource impacts due to the Tsunami Scenario, which affects the west coast of California. The Tsunami Scenario, generated from a hypothetical but realistic M~9.0 earthquake in the Eastern Aleutian Islands, is being developed for emergency planning. As with each prior MHDP scenario, the USGS is partnering with a variety of agencies to explore the most important implications of a distant tsunami disaster and opportunities to better prepare them and reduce their vulnerability. |
