Abstract:
During 1982-1985, PMEL engaged in the development of a reliable
deep-ocean Bottom Pressure Recorder (BPR) to collect high-quality
deep-water data during a tsunami. In 1986, NOAA initiated a
long-term field program in the northeast Pacific and the program
was expanded in 1987 to include shallow-water BPR sites maintained
and operated by the United States Army Corps of Engineers along
the United States west coast and Hawaii. The Pacific Tsunami
Observation Program (PacTOP) included five permanent deep-ocean
observational sites in the northeast Pacific Ocean to monitor the
seismically active Alaska-Aleutian Seismic Zone because of the
potential threat to United States coastal regions. During the
mid-90's, the individual BPR package is now part of a real-time
tsunami detection package, the Deep-ocean Assessment and Reporting
of Tsunamis (DART). The National Geophysical Data Center (NGDC)
serves as the archive center for this data and provides the
historical data to users.
Purpose:
Provide historic pressure and temperature data
