  1. Interim Warning Procedures and the Communication Plan for the Interim Tsunami Advisory Information Service Dr. Charles McCreery, Director NOAA Richard H. Hagemeyer Pacific Tsunami Warning Center Ewa Beach, Hawaii USA T. Hachimine, Director Japan Tsunami Warning Center Tokyo, Japan

  2. PTWC KEY OPERATIONAL ACTIVITIES • FOR PACIFIC EVENTS • SEISMIC DATA COLLECTION & ANALYSES • SEA LEVEL MEASUREMENTS • DECISION-MAKING PROCESSES • MESSAGE CREATION & DISSEMINATION

  3. PTWC KEY OPERATIONAL ACTIVITIES • FOR INDIAN OCEAN REGION EVENTS • SEISMIC DATA COLLECTION & ANALYSES • SEA LEVEL MEASUREMENTS • DECISION-MAKING PROCESSES • MESSAGE CREATION & DISSEMINATION

  4. Frequency of Each Type of Bulletin (based on last 100 years of events)

  5. Seismic criteria for PTWC IO Advisories

  6. PTWC Global Seismic Network

  7. P-WAVE TRAVEL TIMES FOR 12/26/04 EARTHQUAKE

  8. INTERACTIVE TOOL TO DETERMINE Mwp MOMENT MAGNITUDE

  9. PERFORMANCE OF PTWC Mwp Mwp (PTWC) Mw (Harvard)

  10. ISSUE TIME OF PTWC INITIAL BULLETINS FOR PACIFIC TELESEISMIC EARTHQUAKES

  11. Sea Level Stations currently contributing data to PTWC

  12. Sample Tsunami Information Bulletin TSUNAMI BULLETIN NUMBER 001 PACIFIC TSUNAMI WARNING CENTER/NOAA/NWS ISSUED AT 0117Z 11 APR 2005 THIS BULLETIN IS FOR ALL AREAS OF THE INDIAN OCEAN. ... TSUNAMI INFORMATION BULLETIN ... THIS MESSAGE IS FOR INFORMATION ONLY. AN EARTHQUAKE HAS OCCURRED WITH THESE PRELIMINARY PARAMETERS ORIGIN TIME - 0100Z 11 APR 2005 COORDINATES - 1.3 NORTH 97.5 EAST LOCATION - NORTHERN SUMATERA INDONESIA MAGNITUDE - 6.7

  13. EVALUATION A DESTRUCTIVE WIDESPREAD TSUNAMI THREAT DOES NOT EXIST BASED ON HISTORICAL EARTHQUAKE AND TSUNAMI DATA. HOWEVER - THERE IS A VERY SMALL POSSIBILITY OF A LOCAL TSUNAMI THAT COULD AFFECT COASTS LOCATED USUALLY NO MORE THAN A HUNDRED KILOMETERS FROM THE EARTHQUAKE EPICENTER. AUTHORITIES IN THE REGION NEAR THE EPICENTER SHOULD BE MADE AWARE OF THIS POSSIBILITY. THIS WILL BE THE ONLY BULLETIN ISSUED BY THE PACIFIC TSUNAMI WARNING CENTER FOR THIS EVENT UNLESS ADDITIONAL INFORMATION BECOMES AVAILABLE. THE JAPAN METEOROLOGICAL AGENCY MAY ISSUE ADDITIONAL INFORMATION FOR THIS EVENT. Sample Tsunami Information Bulletin (cont’d)

  14. Sample Local Tsunami Watch Supplement TSUNAMI BULLETIN NUMBER 002 PACIFIC TSUNAMI WARNING CENTER/NOAA/NWS ISSUED AT 0354Z 11 APR 2005 THIS BULLETIN IS FOR ALL AREAS OF THE INDIAN OCEAN. ... A LOCAL TSUNAMI WATCH IS IN EFFECT ... A TSUNAMI WATCH IS IN EFFECT FOR INDONESIA FOR OTHER AREAS OF THE INDIAN OCEAN REGION, THIS MESSAGE IS AN ADVISORY ONLY. AN EARTHQUAKE HAS OCCURRED WITH THESE PRELIMINARY PARAMETERS ORIGIN TIME - 0100Z 11 APR 2005 COORDINATES - 1.3 NORTH 97.5 EAST LOCATION - NORTHERN SUMATERA INDONESIA MAGNITUDE - 7.2

MEASUREMENTS OR REPORTS OF TSUNAMI WAVE ACTIVITY GAUGE LOCATION LAT LON TIME AMPL PER ------------------- ----- ------ ----- ------ ----- MALE 4.2N 73.5E 0448Z 0.19M 14MIN COLOMBO 6.9N 79.8E 0345Z 0.15M 22MIN TIME - TIME OF THE MEASUREMENT AMPL - AMPLITUDE IN METERS FROM MIDDLE TO CREST OR MIDDLE TO TROUGH OR HALF OF THE CREST TO TROUGH PER - PERIOD OF TIME FROM ONE WAVE CREST TO THE NEXT EVALUATION SEA LEVEL READINGS INDICATE A TSUNAMI WAS GENERATED. IT MAY HAVE BEEN DESTRUCTIVE ALONG COASTS NEAR THE EARTHQUAKE EPICENTER. FOR THOSE AREAS - WHEN DAMAGING WAVES HAVE NOT OCCURRED FOR AT LEAST TWO HOURS THEN LOCAL AUTHORITIES CAN ASSUME THE THREAT IS PASSED. DANGER TO BOATS AND COASTAL STRUCTURES CAN CONTINUE FOR SEVERAL HOURS DUE TO RAPID CURRENTS. AS LOCAL CONDITIONS CAN CAUSE A WIDE VARIATION IN TSUNAMI WAVE ACTION THE ALL CLEAR DETERMINATION MUST BE MADE BY LOCAL AUTHORITIES. NO TSUNAMI THREAT EXISTS FOR OTHER COASTAL AREAS IN THE INDIAN OCEAN ALTHOUGH SOME OTHER AREAS MAY EXPERIENCE SMALL SEA LEVEL CHANGES. DUE TO ONLY LIMITED SEA LEVEL DATA FROM THE REGION IT IS NOT POSSIBLE FOR THIS CENTER TO RAPIDLY NOR ACCURATELY EVALUATE THE THE STRENGTH OF A TSUNAMI IF ONE HAS BEEN GENERATED. Sample Local Tsunami Watch Supplement (con’d)

  16. Sample Local Tsunami Watch Supplement (cont’d) ESTIMATED INITIAL TSUNAMI WAVE ARRIVAL TIMES. ACTUAL ARRIVAL TIMES MAY DIFFER AND THE INITIAL WAVE MAY NOT BE THE LARGEST.

  17. PTWC Preliminary Forecast Points

  18. FORECAST POINTS • USED TO DETERMINE IF AN AREA IS IN A WATCH • TSUNAMI ETA’S FOR FORECAST POINTS GIVEN IN BULLETINS IF AREA IS IN A WATCH • PRELIMINARY ONES TAKEN FROM ATLAS – NEEDS REVIEW BY MEMBER STATES • SHOULD BE RECOGNIZABLE PLACES • NEED ADEQUATE COVERAGE OF COASTS - ONE EVERY FEW HUNDRED KILOMETERS • NOT TOO MANY OR BULLETINS TOO LONG

  19. WMO (GTS) PRODUCT IDENTIFIERS FOR PTWC PRODUCTS IN THE INDIAN OCEAN

  20. COMMUNICATIONS PLAN for the INTERIM • TSUNAMI ADVISORY INFORMATION SERVICE • GENERAL REFERENCE MANUAL FOR THE TSUNAMI ADVISORY INFORMATION SERVICE • DESCRIPTION OF WARNING CENTERS’ PROCEDURES FOR ISSUING BULLETINS • DESCRIPTION OF BULLETINS AND THEIR MEANING • DESCRIPTION OF COMMUNICATION METHODS FOR MESSAGE DISSEMINATION • REFERENCE FOR DESIGNATED CONTACT POINTS OF EACH COUNTRY

  21. COMMUNICATIONS METHODS FOR THE INDIAN OCEAN • KEEP IT SIMPLER THAN IN THE PACIFIC • GTS AS THE BACKBONE SYSTEM • TELEFAX AND EMAIL AS ALTERNATE METHODS • CONFIRMATION OF RECEIPT? • PERSON-TO-PERSON TELEPHONE CONTACT SHOULD NOT BE REQUIRED, BUT MAY BE USED
