Tsunami! (maps)
Posted By Heidi Walters on Wed, Dec 23, 2009 at 3:19 PM
Just in time for Xmas! New maps to show us how to get the heck to high ground when the big one rocks and swooshes!
To check out these new coastal inundation maps -- mostly mapped by Professor Aggeliki Barberopoulou and courtesy the state and the USC Tsunami Research Center -- and see who'd get inundated during the worst-case run-ups, go here.
And for the behind-the-scenes run down on this statewide coastline hedge-o-protection project, go the USC Viterbi School of Engineering website.
