WCATWC


WCATWC :

Established in 1949, NOAA's Richard H. Hagemeyer Pacific Tsunami Warning Center (PTWC) in Ewa Beach, Hawaii, serves as the warning operations headquarters for the PTWS and works closely with sub-regional and national centres in monitoring and evaluating potentially tsunamigenic earthquakes. It provides international warning advisories for teletsunamis to countries in the Pacific, and warnings for Hawaii and US Pacific island interests. PTWC provided interim services for the Indian Ocean from 2005-2012, and since 2005 for the wider Caribbean. Established in 1964, NOAA's West Coast and Alaska Tsunami Warning Center (WCATWC) provides warning services to the continental USA, Puerto Rico, the US and British Virgin Islands, and Canada, and serves as a back up to PTWC.
