Tsunamis are one of nature’s most powerful forces, and among the most devastating natural hazards. Across the world, millions of people living in coastal communities are vulnerable to tsunamis.
Because tsunamis know no border, as part of the Ocean Decade, scientists around the world are working together to combine tech innovation with natural resilience, from self-raising sea barriers and tsunami sensors to restoring mangroves and reefs.
This World #TsunamiDay, discover how the Ocean Decade is turning hard-won lessons into science-based solutions for coastal preparedness and resilience in our latest 'Ocean Science in Action' story: https://oceandecade.org/tag/ocean-science-in-action/
