The Intertidal Zone
The intertidal zone is the area between the high tide and the low tide marks. It’s that place beachcombers love to explore at low tide to discover what the ocean has left behind. It’s where all the good stuff is.
Here in the OCW Intertidal Zone, you’ll find a variety of Oregon Coast-related nuggets. Dig around. Never know what you might discover.
The Next Tsunami
Could not put this book down. Bonnie Henderson takes a complex subject and writes about it like a great novelist. You can’t wait to turn the page and dive into the next chapter.
The Next Tsunami takes you on an intriguing journey through the history of tectonic plates, earthquakes, and tsunamis along the Oregon Coast. You get to know the geologists, paleoseismologists, and other “ists” in this book as if they were your neighbors and friends.
It’s true what they say about “The Big One.” It’s not if, it’s when. If you live or work along the Oregon Coast, or if you are visiting, it’s critical to familiarize yourself with tsunami evacuation procedures and prepare a plan to reach higher ground if you feel an earthquake, especially if you are in an inundation zone.
After finishing this book, you’ll be ready to make a solid evacuation plan. And then once that plan is in place, you can continue to enjoy the Oregon Coast in all its beauty.
And you’ll go find more books by Bonnie Henderson.
