Maritime Guidance for Distant and Local Source Tsunami Events: Unalaska, Alaska

Abstract

These documents provide response guidance for Unalaska/Dutch Harbor in the event of tsunamis for small vessels such as recreational sailing and motor vessels, and commercial fishing vessels. The developed documents follow the guidance developed by the National Tsunami Hazard Mitigation Program (NTHMP) and are based on anticipated effects of a maximum-considered distant and locally generated tsunami event.
