• Recent tsunami disasters in the Pacific Ocean testify to their destructive power -- are similar events likely in the Pacific Northwest?
• Geographic research is helping to understand the risk, assisting planners with developing effective emergency response plans
• Which coastal communities are at greatest risk, and what can be now to prepare for future Cascadia tsunamis?
