Today is World Tsunami Awareness Day.

If you are on the coast and feel shaking or get an earthquake early warning alert, you should #DropCoverHoldOn. Wait for shaking to stop. Then evacuate to high ground or inland. A tsunami may be coming!

Learn about #ShakeAlert at usgs.gov/FAQ/BeShakeAlertSafe.

That’s a wrap on the 2025 CRESCENT Annual Meeting! Thank you to all of the speakers, organizers, and attendees for making it a success.

Day 2 featured new insights in tsunami and landslide science, modeling, hazards, and geoscience education.

Here’s to another year of collaboration!

Good morning from Day 2 of the CRESCENT Annual Meeting! Day 1 brought amazing science talks, a lively poster session (with great work from our Twinning Program undergrads!), & a networking lunch connecting students, postdocs, & leaders.
Ready for another full day of talks, posters, & collaboration!

Kicking off the CRESCENT Annual Meeting at UW Seattle! Excited to gather researchers, students, & collaborators for two days of talks, posters, and breakout sessions on the dynamic Cascadia Subduction Zone.
