Tsunami Siren
A Tsunami Siren is a part of a Tsunami Warning System (TWS) that alerts people of a potential tsunami in a coastal area. A TWS uses sensors to detect tsunamis and a communications infrastructure to issue warnings. The sensors monitor pressure changes in the ocean that could be caused by earthquakes or volcanic activity. The data is then sent to surface buoys, which relay it to a tsunami warning center. The center studies the data and informs the appropriate government offices. The goal of a TWS is to prevent loss of life and damage to property by allowing people to evacuate coastal areas in time.
