The surprise Japanese attack on the American naval base at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, on the morning of December 7, 1941, marked the beginning of the United States' involvement in the Second World War. As a result of the attack, a total of 2,403 Americans were killed, and the vast majority of these were from the U.S. Navy. Almost half of all American deaths on the day came were those on the U.S.S. Arizona, where 1,177 servicemen were killed as the ship was sunk. In contrast, just 129 Japanese soldiers were killed in the attack.
During the attack on Pearl Harbor, the Japanese losses were just a fraction of those incurred by the United States. In total, the Japanese lose 129 men in the attack, mostly aircraft pilots, which was equal to roughly five percent of U.S. losses on the day.
During the attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, a total of three U.S. ships were destroyed beyond repair, and a further 16 were damaged in some capacity. This was in addition to more than 120 damaged or destroyed Navy Aircraft, and over 2,000 Navy personnel deaths. The sinking of the U.S.S. Arizona battleship alone resulted in the deaths of almost half of all U.S. citizens killed in the attack.
One goal of the attack was to try and destroy the three U.S. aircraft carriers stationed at Pearl Harbor, however all three were at sea performing maneuver drills at the time of the attack. This was seen as one consolation at the time, but proved to be a foundation of the U.S. response in the Pacific.

During the attack on Pearl Harbor, a total of 169 U.S. aircraft were destroyed beyond repair, while a further 159 were damaged in some capacity. By targeting enemy aircraft on the ground, the Japanese air force greatly weakened the Americans' ability to counter attack - only six American planes made it into the air to repel the first wave of the attack.
These data provide an accurate high-resolution shoreline compiled from imagery of PEARL HARBOR, HI . This vector shoreline data is based on an office interpretation of imagery that may be suitable as a geographic information system (GIS) data layer. This metadata describes information for both the line and point shapefiles. The NGS attribution scheme 'Coastal Cartographic Object Attribute Source Table (C-COAST)' was developed to conform the attribution of various sources of shoreline data into one attribution catalog. C-COAST is not a recognized standard, but was influenced by the International Hydrographic Organization's S-57 Object-Attribute standard so the data would be more accurately translated into S-57.

Data has been processed by NODC to the NODC standard Bathythermograph (MBT) (C128) format. The C128 format is used for temperature-depth profile data obtained using the mechanical bathythermograph (MBT) instrument. The maximum depth of MBT observations is approximately 285 m. Therefore, MBT data are useful only in studying the thermal structure of the upper layers of the ocean. Cruise information, date, position, and time are reported for each observation. The data record comprises pairs of temperature-depth values. Temperature data in this file are recorded at uniform 5 m depth intervals.

A total of 353 Japanese aircraft were mobilized for the attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. Over 270 of these planes were bombers or torpedo carriers, whose aim was to inflict as much damage as possible. These were accompanied by 79 fighter planes, whose job it was to repel any defensive aircraft sent into the air by the U.S.. The surprise attack destroyed or damaged the majority of the U.S. air fleet, and only six U.S. fighters made it into the air to counter the first wave of the attack.
The Japanese lost just 29 aircraft during the attack, and most of the strike force made it back to the aircraft carriers to fight again. The Japanese military was famous for its use of suicidal kamikaze fighters during the Second World War, however these units were not deployed until late-1944, and their intentional use during the attack on Pearl Harbor is a common misconception.

The Pearl Harbor, Hawaii Forecast Model Grids provides bathymetric data strictly for tsunami inundation modeling with the Method of Splitting Tsunami (MOST) model. MOST is a suite of numerical simulation codes capable of simulating three processes of tsunami evolution: generation, transoceanic propagation, and inundation of dry land. Tsunami waves are computationally propagated across a set of three nested grids (A, B, and C), each of which is successively finer in resolution, moving from offshore to onshore. Nearshore details are resolved to the point that model output can be directly compared with tide gauge observations and can provide estimates of wave arrival time, wave amplitude and simulation of wave inundation onto dry land. A Grid Resolution: 120 arc-sec. B Grid Resolution: 18 arc-sec. C Grid Resolution: 2 arc-sec.

Non-hydrostatic Evolution of Ocean WAVEs (NEOWAVE) regional tsunami model for Pearl Harbor on the south coast of the island of Oahu in the state of Hawaii, categorized by earthquake magnitude and subduction zone. Includes nearshore hazard maps of surge, drawdown, and current for hypothetical advisory and warning-level tsunamis from potential sources at the Aleutian, Kuril-Kamchatka, and Peru-Chile subduction zones. Data are gridded at approximately 9-m resolution referenced to the WGS84 coordinate system and use a vertical datum of mean sea level (MSL). This shock-capturing, dispersive wave model computes tsunami generation, propagation, and inundation for complex flow patterns in shelf and reef environments. It has been validated with analytical, laboratory, and field benchmarks and is approved by the National Tsunami Hazard Mitigation Program. These hazard maps cover tsunamis only; other potential hazards such as wind waves and swells would be additive to the surge, drawdown, and current described by these data.

While the Empire of Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor largely came from above - in the shape of fighter aircraft and bomber planes - the attack was launched from a fleet of ships that had positioned itself within 300 miles of the island of Hawaii on the morning of December 7, 1941. The striking force departed from Hitokappu Bay in the Kuril Islands to the north of Japan (present-day Russia, but claimed by Japan) on November 26. The fleet secretly made its way across the North Pacific, successfully avoiding detection by U.S. forces. The attack was carried out by 353 Japanese aircraft, which were launched from six aircraft carriers; and five midget submarines, which were launched from five "mothership" cruiser submarines. The remainder of the naval force (including around 50 aircraft) stayed out of sight of the Hawaiian coast, and were prepared to engage with any counter attack - however the surprise attack was a success, and the U.S. forces were unable to reorganize and respond at the time. On the same day, the Empire of Japan also launched simultaneous attacks on the U.S. territories of Guam, Wake Island, and the Philippines - it was not until the Battle of Midway six months later where the U.S. would win its first decisive victory in battle over the Japanese, where it also sunk four of the six aircraft carriers that had participated in the attack on Pearl Harbor.
