gov.noaa.ngdc.mgg.photos:30The magnitude 8.6 (Mw) earthquake occurred south of the Andreanof Islands, in the Aleutian Islands. It generated an 8-meter tsunami that did great damage on Adak Island, especially to the fuel and oil docks. However, the Hawaiian Islands incurred the greatest damage (about $5 million in 1957 dollars). The highest wave was 10.4 meters at Haena, Kauai.To provide long-term scientific data stewardship for the Nation's geophysical data, ensuring quality, integrity, and accessibilityIn workasNeeded-175.629-175.62951.29251.292NASA/GCMD Earth Science KeywordsEARTH SCIENCE > HUMAN DIMENSIONS > Natural Hazards > Geological HazardsRestriction Code: otherRestrictions; DOC/NOAA/NESDIS/NGDC > National Geophysical Data Center, NESDIS, NOAA, U.S. Department of CommerceHazards Dataphysical and mailing NOAA/NESDIS/NGDC E/GC 325 Broadway BoulderCO80305-3328(303) 497-3707haz.info@noaa.govUnknown 20120222Heather McCulloughDOC/NOAA/NESDIS/NGDC > National Geophysical Data Center, NESDIS, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commercemailing and physical NOAA/NESDIS/NGDC/MGG 325 Broadway E/GC3 BoulderCO80305-3328(303) 497-3707haz.info@noaa.govHeather.McCullough@noaa.govContent Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata: Extensions for Remote Sensing MetadataFGDC-STD-012-2002
