Abstract:
The tsunami hazard map for the Coos Bay Area shows four risk zones for tsunami flooding from Cascadia subduction zone earthquakes. The zones are as follows: -Low to negligible risk zone for tsunami flooding (300-600 year events); -Moderate risk zone for tsunami flooding (300-600 year events); -High risk zone for tsunami flooding (300-600 year events); -Extreme risk zone for tsunami flooding (300-600 year events).
Purpose:
The purpose of the map is to delineate hazard zones for tsunami flooding in the Coos Bay Area. The mapped boundaries may be viewed as guides for evacuation planning in the event of an earthquake and tsunami.
