Tsunami Early Warning System

A Tsunami Early Warning System monitors ocean and seismic activity to detect signs of potential tsunamis, such as undersea earthquakes or sudden changes in sea level. Using sensors, buoys, and seismic data, it assesses the threat and rapidly alerts coastlines and communities at risk. The goal is to provide enough time—sometimes minutes to hours—for people to evacuate or seek higher ground, reducing casualties and damage. It’s an essential safety measure that relies on advanced technology and communication networks to detect threats early and save lives.
