                                                                Introduction


                        A natural hazard is a rare or extreme event in nature that adversely impacts human life, property, or
                activity. No human settlements are free from the risk of natural hazards, therefore it is vital that researchers
                and decision-makers have access to all available hazards information.

                        Information needs are especially acute as we enter the 1990s, and we contemplate rising tolls from
                natural hazards worldwide. In response to this threat, the United Nations General Assembly designated the
                1990s the Decade for Natural Disaster Reduction--a 10-year period devoted to improved efforts to reduce
                losses from natural extremes. The challenge to the hazards community is to halt or reverse the trend of
                rising impacts. Experience suggests that enough knowledge already exists, if properly applied, to substantially
                reduce both human and property losses from natural disasters.

                        The United Nations called upon all countries to: establish national Decade programs which examine
                their capabilities for reducing the toll of natural hazards; assess the particular requirements of their
                respective countries in order to improve those capabilities; and develop a strategy for attaining these goals.
                An important first step in this process is identifying available information resources that address hazards
                management and mitigation activities. This directory was compiled to take that step as a contribution to the
                United States Decade program.

                        The directory was prepared by the Natural Hazards Research and Applications Information Center
                at the University of Colorado at Boulder, in conjunction with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
                Administration's National Geophysical Data Center in Boulder. Financial support was provided by the
                National Science Foundation through grant # CES-8717115 to the Program on Environment and Behavior of
                the Institute of Behavioral Science at the University of Colorado. Special thanks to Dr. Eleonora Sabadell of
                NSFs Natural and Manmade Hazards Mitigation Program for this grant. NOAA's National Geophysical
                Data Center funded the publication of this directory.


                                                 How this Directory was Compiled

                        Data resource surveys were mailed to nearly 1400 potential sources of natural hazards data in the
                winter of 1988-89. These sources were identified from existing data bases at the Natural Hazards Center as
                well as through a wide-ranging search for other appropriate data resources. Following the mail survey, the
                responses were screened and sorted, including those which provided data, technical assistance, or services
                related to hazards on a regional or national basis. In addition, a follow-up telephone survey was conducted
                of all non-respondents believed to be maintaining valuable data resources. Those not included were
                primarily private for-profit firms, and state agencies with data pertaining only to a specific state.


                                                                Usef ulness


                        Despite efforts to be complete and thorough in the preparation of this directory, there may be
                sources of information which are not included. Additionally, information contained herein may contain
                minor inaccuracies, especially because prices, data, content, format, contact people, and offices are ever-
                changing. It is intended that the directory be updated periodically, and therefore we ask you to send any
                comments about its usefulness, as well as corrections or additions, to:

                        The hazard-related organizations located in the Appendix include numerous state and federal
               institutions, as well as US and international programs. When appropriate, general functions of these
               organizations are described.

                        The directory has three indices: agency, subject, and geographic. Many data resources apply to
               more than one hazard (e.g. earthquake and fire); therefore, through cross-referencing in the subject index,
               the user may locate multi-hazard data resources.

                        To use this directory, simply look for a data resource by topic in the Table of Contents or Subject
               Index, and turn to the appropriate page.

                Description                        The Western States Seismic Policy Council, WSSPC, formed in 1979 and
                                                   the early 1980s. WSSPC improves understanding about earthquake
                                                   preparedness, and formulates policy to lessen the impacts of earthquakes.
                                                   The Council provides a cooperative forum for enhancing the development
                                                   of comprehensive local, state, and national seismic safety policies and

              Description                   Earthquake preparedness is encouraged for everyone in California, yet
                                            information on earthquake safety is not widely available in a medium for
                                            the hearing-impaired. In 1987 the Ventura County Office of Emergency
                                            Services produced a special video on household-level preparedness, after
                                            researchers discovered that 11% of Ventura County residents are either
                                            deaf or have some form of hearing impairment. Silent Ouak (1987, 42
                                            minutes long) is a signed, captioned, and narrated videotape of a deaf
                                            family's visit with a neighbor to discuss earthquake preparedness. It
                                            provides carefully presented, easily understood information on stocking a
                                            safety kit and food supplies for survival after an earthquake; securing heavy
                                            interior objects and a building@s foundation; arranging with neighbors for
                                            communication and assistance after an earthquake; taking protective
                                            measures during an earthquake; handling damage to water, electrical, and
                                            gas lines; and assisting the injured.

               Description                       Because over 3 million Missourians,. as well as more than 12 million
                                                 midwesterners, are at risk from earthquakes originating in the New Madrid
                                                 Seismic Zone, a Center for Earthquake Studies opened at the Department
                                                 of Earth Sciences, Southeast Missouri State University. The center is a
                                                 cooperative endeavor of the university and the Missouri State Emergency
                                                 Management Agency. Its purpose is to protect people from earthquake
                                                 hazards by a variety of mitigation activities, including applied research, that
                                                 will prevent or reduce casualties, injuries, and property loss.

                                                 The founders of the center recognize that relatively small investments in
                                                 seismic hazard mitigation yield significant savings in reduced damages.
                                                 Therefore, they plan to undertake a wide range of activities including the
                                                 development of public awareness campaigns; publication of books and
                                                 videos; assessment of risk in specific regions; promotion of safe building
                                                 practices, especially in schools; organization of conferences, seminars,
                                                 courses, and training workshops; and the initiation of other activities with
                                                 the Missouri State Emergency Agency.

                                             2)  Develop seismic design and construction standards;
                                             3)  Develop an earthquake prediction capability;
                                             4)  Prepare plans for mitigation, preparedness, and response activities;
                                             5)  Conduct fundamental and applied research into the causes and
                                                 implications of earthquake hazards;
                                                 Educate the public about earthquake hazards.

             Description                   The National Oceanic and Atmospheric's, NOAA, Climate Analysis Center,
                                           CAC, maintains the Climate Assessment Data Base which contains daily
                                           summary meteorological and climatological parameters for over 6,000 global
                                           locations spanning the most recent 1,000 days. The Center produces the
                                           Weekly Climate Bulletin, a free publication indicating current surface
                                           climate conditions in the US and around the world. The bulletin's primary
                                           focus is anomalies of precipitation and temperature, which are defined from
                                           summarized preliminary operational data received via the Global
                                           Telecommunication System.

                                           The CAC also provides a climate dial-up computer system. This system
                                           includes a number of data sets and other products to aid users working in
                                           such areas as agriculture, energy, water resources, forestry, and climate
                                           research. The system is menu driven, and a user can choose information
                                           selectively. Users must have a receiving device--anything from a simple
                                           terminal to a computer.

                                           In addition, CAC offers information on severe short-term US climate
                                           anomalies through the NOAA Drought Advi&O-a. This series of special
                                           advisories are updated weekly, and other agencies contribute to them (e.g.,
                                           National Weather Service, National Climatic Data Centers, and state
                                           climatologists).

             Format                        Data are on-line, hard copy, audio-visual, and technical assistance.

             Availability                  The WeLkly ClimaW Bulletin is free. The Climate Dial-Up Service costs
                                           $48-$600, depending on usage and is available 24 hours.

                    DROUGHT


                    Description                      The Severe Sustained Drought Project, SSD, provides baseline information
                                                     on the probability, frequency, and severity of drought. The project also
                                                     examines the capability of existing infrastructural and institutional systems
                                                     to respond to drought. The project outlines alternative drought
                                                     management options. The project also highlights priorities and
                                                     opportunities for additional drought-related research.

                    Description                      The University of Nebraska at Lincoln established the International
                                                     Drought Information Center, IDIC, to better understand the problem of
                                                     drought. The Center strives to improve communication about prediction,
                                                     monitoring, impact assessment, adjustment and adaptation, and planning
                                                     and response to drought. The specific objectives of the IDIC are to:

                                                     1) Collect, analyze, and disseminate information on current episodes of

                                              Caribbean Sea region. Since Puerto Rico has not been struck by a fall-
                                              blown hurricane since 1932, field data is scarce; however, the Department
                                              does conduct computer simulations of hurricanes striking Puerto Rico. The

                                                      determine the relationship between mountain snowpack and the subsequent
                                                      snowmelt runoff. The program collects data from about 1600 snow courses
                                                      several times each winter. Surveyors determine the depth and water
                                                      content of the snowpack, and estimate the amount of runoff from mountain
                                                      watersheds.

                                                organizations which generate water data, as well as the type of data
                                                maintained and the geographic area of data collection. These organizations
                                                are members of the National Water Data Exchange.

                                                The Master Water Data Index consists of data from over 460,000 collection
                                                sites. The data include the: collection agency, type of data, period of
                                                record, parameters measured, frequency of measurements, data media, and
                                                site locations.

                                                NAWDEX also accesses several other computerized data bases, including
                                                STORET of the Environmental Protection Agency and ENDEX/OASIS of

                     Description                       The Federal Emergency Management Agency, FEMA, created the
                                                       Integrated Emergency Management Information System, IEMIS. IEMIS is
                                                       part of a comprehensive National Emergency Management System. IEMIS
                                                       combines state-of-the-art communications, computer simulations, and color
                                                       graphics to support decision-making in emergency management. IEMIS
                                                       integrates conventional emergency response resources with new automated
                                                       capabilities for single users or coordinated groups. FEMA headquarters in
                                                       Washington, DC, ten regional FEMA offices, and the National Emergency
                                                       Training Center, each house IEMIS work stations. FEMA also makes the
                                                       system accessible to local, state, and other Federal officials for use
                                                       according to their special needs. Emergency management officials may use
                                                       a variety of equipment, from personal computers to minicomputers, to
                                                       interact with IEMIS. IEMIS will give these officials a common basis for
                                                       sharing data, cooperative planning, and interaction during simulated
                                                       emergencies. These activities will also pave the way for the use of IEMIS
                                                       in coordinating operations during real emergencies.

                                                       The goals of IEMIS are to: apply state-of-the-art automated data
                                                       processing technology to emergency management; establish a dedicated,
                                                       interactive computer system for the nation's emergency management

                                                       emergency managers and; encourage the use of similar technology for
                                                       training, planning and emergency operations. IEMIS software includes
                                                       computer utilities for: text processing, electronic communications, data base
                                                       development and management, file management, business graphics, access

           Description                The Crisis Response Conclusion Retrieval System, CRCRS, is a data base
                                      management system that accesses conclusions derived from documents
                                      concerning behavior and attitudes associated with emergency management
                                      and disaster research. The primary output from CRCRS is conclusions and
                                      bibliographic information covering appro)dmately the last twenty years.
                                      Conclusions are accompanied by information on--the methodology of the
                                      documents from which the conclusions were drawn, and assessments to help
                                      one decide how much confidence to place in each conclusion.

           Format                     CRCRS is available on 18 high density, double sided disks. The DOS
                                      command Backup was used to copy the system onto the diskettes from the
                                      subdirectory CRCRS.

           Availability               In order to install CRCRS on your machine, you will need at least 20
                                      megabytes of space on your hard disk and a high density drive. First, you
                                      must set up a subdirectory called CRCRS, then use the DOS command
                                      Restore to copy the files from the diskettes into the subdirectory on your
                                      hard disk area. The diskettes are numbered, and must be restored in
                                      sequence, I to 18. Please refer to your MS-DOS manual for the proper
                                      commands. Documentation for CRCRS is provided with the program.

               Description                        Partners of the Americas, a non-profit organization created in 1964, carries
                                                  out grass-roots, self-help projects, via volunteers, which enhance the
                                                  economic, social and community development of the Americas. Through
                                                  Partners of the Americas, US states are paired with Latin American and
                                                  Caribbean countries to form "partnerships," for developing projects in:
                                                  agriculture, community development, special education, university linkages,
                                                  women and youth serving programs, cultural exchanges, and in many other
                                                  areas. In 1984, Partners of the Americas initiated an Emergency
                                                  Preparedness Program to promote the exchange and development of
                                                  emergency preparedness professionals and programs throughout the
                                                  hemisphere. The program offers the exchange of emergency management
                                                  professionals and information, small assistance grants, and emergency
                                                  preparedness training. Partners of the Americas also provides disaster
                                                  assistance, usually in the form of technical assistance and small projects
                                                  which focus on rehabilitation and recovery needs.

               Format                             Partners provides grants which partially cover travel expenses for volunteers
                                                  to provide technical assistance to designated "partner areas" of Latin
                                                  America and the Caribbean, and for Latin American and Caribbean
                                                  emergency management professionals to visit the US.

                                               University, SFU, in Burnaby, British Columbia, established a
                                               microcomputer-based electronic bulletin board on emergency preparedness.
                                               This newly established, 1989, project intends to stimulate networking and

             Description                  Mothers for HELP wants to Help Everyone Learn Preparedness.
                                          Volunteers work with local fire departments and community groups in the
                                          state of Washington to establish neighborhood command centers and teach
                                          household preparedness. They work closely with local school districts to
                                          devise evacuation plans, provide I.D. cards for school children, and plan
                                          shelter programs to house children whose parents are unavailable after a
                                          disaster. Mothers for HELP also trains individuals in first aid, search and
                                          rescue skills, and the placement of survival items in schools, churches, and
                                          fire departments throughout their neighborhoods.

                                          While acknowledging the lack of electronic communication in the aftermath
                                          of a major earthquake, Mothers for HELP created a "signal ribbon" method
                                          of informing rescue workers of the status of members of each household in
                                          a community. "Signal ribbons" save rescue workers time. A family which
                                          hangs a green ribbon on the front door indicates that all members are safe.
                                          A yellow ribbon signifies the presence of an injured person, and a red
                                          ribbon denotes a person in a life-threatening situation.
