The COMET Meteorology Education Program has developed four on-line tsunami training modules: Tsunami Warning Systems, Tsunami Science, Community Tsunami Preparedness, and TsunamiStrike!. The Tsunami Warning System module describes the processes involved in anticipating, detecting, and warning for a tsunami by summarizing data collection, modeling, analysis, and alert procedures used at NOAA's Tsunami Warning Centers. The Tsunami Science module, entitled Tsunamis, delves into the science behind tsunami generation, propagation, and inundation. The Community Preparedness module describes proper preparations for a tsunami. The TsunamiStrike! module is an interactive tsunami training module oriented for middle and high school ages, but fun and useful for anyone.

These fully narrated modules contain numerous animations and photographs, as well as a companion print version. The content varies between the modules, but is appropriate for anyone wanting to learn more about tsunamis, preparedness, and the components of tsunami warning systems.
