The USGS is offering this grant to a Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) participant to conduct critical assessments of debris management. This funding specifically supports analysis related to a hypothetical yet realistic M~9.0 earthquake in the Eastern Aleutian Islands, which would generate a significant tsunami impacting the West Coast of California. This grant is for the purpose of developing a comprehensive tsunami scenario for emergency planning. As part of a larger Multi-Hazard Disaster Program (MHDP), the USGS collaborates with various agencies to understand the potential implications of such a distant tsunami disaster. The aim is to enhance preparedness strategies and reduce vulnerability within affected communities.
