Abstract
Under The UN Decade for Ocean Science, UNESCO/IOC has established the UN Ocean Decade Tsunami Program (ODTP). The purpose of the program is to establish a global framework from which significant gains in both operational tsunami science (instrumentation, analysis, forecasting, etc) and preparedness capacities can be realized. To guide this effort a Scientific Committee was established to, in part, identify aspirational goals in both of these areas with the intent of fundamentally advancing the state of the Global Tsunami Warning and Mitigation System over the course of the Decade. In this paper, these specific goals related to tsunami detection, measurement, and forecasting will be outlined along with the types of instrumentation and analysis strategies being considered to achieve them. As a primary objective of the ODTP is to elevate the capacities of all at-risk IOC member States, the ODTP has prioritized strategies that encourage the participation of all at-risk states, in a way that can be seamlessly combined to develop a global tsunami sensing and forecasting network far more advanced and capable that could otherwise be achieved with individual, independent actions.
