NCEI/WDS Global Historical Tsunami Database

Ongoing global historical database of related tsunami source-event and observed runup-location tables, spanning 2100 BC to the present. It emits event source/time/location, cause, validity, magnitude/intensity, maximum water height and historical effects plus runup observation location, arrival/travel time, measurement type, water height, horizontal inundation and location effects. Reporting is heterogeneous and is neither a completeness claim nor prospective hazard. Pin DOI 10.7289/V5PN93H7, retrieval date/query and API schema.

NOAA NCEI/WDS Global Significant Volcanic Eruptions Database

Ongoing global historical database of significant volcanic eruptions from 4360 BC to present. An event qualifies if it caused fatalities, caused moderate damage (about USD 1 million or more), had VEI 6+, generated a tsunami, or was associated with a significant earthquake. HazEL emits event timing, volcano identity/location, VEI, fatality agents, direct eruption effects, combined associated effects, comments, and association IDs. It is not the complete GVP catalogue, a current-alert feed, or a prospective hazard model.
