Tsunami, catastrophic ocean wave usually caused by a submarine earthquake, by a landslide, or by a volcanic eruption. In deep water it travels as fast as 800 km (500 miles) per hour, with enormous wavelengths of more than 500 km (310 miles) but small wave amplitudes of about 30 to 60 cm (1 to 2 feet).

A tsunami is a series of waves caused by earthquakes or undersea volcanic eruptions. On September 29, 2009, a tsunami caused substantial damage and loss of life in American Samoa, Samoa, and Tonga. The tsunami was generated by a large earthquake in the Southern Pacific Ocean.

Tsunamis are ocean waves triggered by: Large earthquakes that occur near or under the ocean. Volcanic eruptions. Submarine landslides. Onshore landslides in which large volumes of debris fall into the water. Scientists do not use the term "tidal wave" because these waves are not caused by tides.

A tsunami is a series of extremely long waves caused by a large and sudden displacement of the ocean, usually the result of an earthquake below or near the ocean floor. This force creates waves that radiate outward in all directions away from their source, sometimes crossing entire ocean basins.

22 Apr 2024 at 1:28pm
Tsunami is a set of ocean waves caused by any large, abrupt disturbance of the sea-surface. If the disturbance is close to the coastline, local tsunamis can demolish coastal communities within minutes. A very large disturbance can cause local devastation AND export tsunami destruction thousands of miles away.
