The document describes 9 tsunami scenarios that will be simulated as part of the Exercise Pacific Wave 2011. Each scenario includes the origin time, location (latitude and longitude), depth, and magnitude of an earthquake that would cause a tsunami. Earthquakes will occur during the day in their respective epicentral regions, ranging from Kamchatka to the Aleutian Islands.
