Coastal storms and tsunamis USGS responses to and studies of the hazards and impact of major hurricanes, tsunamis, and El Nino storms. Includes links to oblique aerial photography and LIDAR surveys recording coastal changes and other effects of storms and waves. (Score: 1.000)
Hurricanes & Storms Online Science Resource Locator (Score: 1.000)
Geographic distribution of major hazards in the U.S. Webpage with six maps showing areas in the contiguous 48 states (not Hawaii and Alaska) with a relatively high risk or frequency of selected hazards (floods, earthquakes, landslides, hurricanes, tornadoes, and volcanic eruptions). (Score: 0.690)
Hurricane and extreme storm impact studies: coastal and nearshore mapping with oblique aerial video and still photography Information on video and still photography used to supplement laser altimetry measurements of the coast. The photography is used for recognizing geomorphic and cultural features impacted by storms. Links to photo collections of hurricanes and El Nino. (Score: 0.690)

Hurricanes & Storms in Alaska Online Science Resource Locator (Score: 0.647)
Hurricane and extreme storm impact studies Homepage for programs of the Center for Coastal Geology on hurricanes and extreme storms with links to technology, related aerial photography, hurricanes, El Nino, northeasters, and specific storms. (Score: 0.640)
Hurricane and extreme storm impact studies: coastal and nearshore mapping with scanning airborne laser (LIDAR) Airborne scanning laser surveys (LIDAR) are used to obtaining data to investigate the magnitude and causes of coastal changes that occur during severe storms. Links to examples of coastal mapping during specific hurricanes. (Score: 0.640)
Hurricane and extreme storm impact studies: hurricanes, El-Nio, & northeasters Description of three types of severe coastal storm impacts: hurricane impacts on the southeast U.S., extra-tropical storm impacts on the U.S. west coast during El-Nio winters, and northeaster impacts on the U.S. east coast.
