By Evan Bush, NBC News The magnitude-8.8 earthquake off Russia’s Kamchatka peninsula sent a wave of water racing at the speed of a jetliner toward Hawaii, California and Washington state, spurring warnings and alarm overnight Wednesday. But when the tsunami waves arrived, they didn’t cause devastation or deaths in the United States, and the inundation might not have appeared threatening in some locations where warnings were issued.| Cooperative Institute for Climate, Ocean, & Ecosystem Studies

By Theo Stein, NOAA Research For decades, firefighting crews counted on falling temperatures and rising humidity at night to dampen wildfire activity, allowing them to rest, regroup and prepare for the next day. Over the last 20 years though, satellite measurements have confirmed a change reported in the western US by firefighters on the ground: a dramatic increase in nighttime fire activity by larger fires.| Cooperative Institute for Climate, Ocean, & Ecosystem Studies
By NOAA Alaska Fisheries Science Center To locate endangered North Pacific right whales, scientists listen for their calls in Alaskan waters believed to be a part of their historical feeding grounds. To do this, scientists use underwater microphones, known as hydrophones. The NOAA Fisheries/University of Washington scientific team documented sounds from these rare right whales at all six acoustic mooring sites in the Aleutian Island passes and northern Gulf of Alaska.| Cooperative Institute for Climate, Ocean, & Ecosystem Studies
