Tracking tsunamis triggered by extreme weather
Scientists are developing ways to monitor tsunamis caused not by earthquakes but by extreme weather events, a phenomenon known as meteotsunamis. The work focuses on improving detection and warning systems as severe storms become more frequent, helping coastal communities prepare for these fast-moving waves that traditional earthquake-based tsunami alerts can miss.
Why now: Growing concern about extreme weather and its under-monitored tsunami-like effects is driving attention to new detection research.
