no
They aren't. Normal tides are governed by the gravitational pull of the Moon and to a lesser extent of the Sun. Tsunamis are caused by undersea earthquakes or by landslips into the sea.
Tsunamis are not called Tidal waves anymore, as tsunamis are not affected by the tides. Tides do not affect how strong or tall the tsunamis are and that is why tsunamis are not commonly called tidal waves anymore because the word 'tidal' is misleading.
Yes. Most tsunamis are triggered by earthquakes.
Some people call tsunamis tidal waves but the word tsunami means "harbor wave" (tsu=harbor, nami=wave) so tsunamis have nothing to do with the tides.
Bigger tides, more earthquakes and tsunamis etc.
the tides and was would go ballistic and there would be tsunamis everywhere and lots of us would die
Earthquakes can trigger both landslides and tsunamis.
Tides are caused by the gravitational attraction of the moon (and other astronomical bodies to a lesser extent), and tsunamis are caused by earthquakes. Tides are very predictable, tsunamis are very unpredictable.
No one knows its all about how the waves go or tides. Love, Bambie
No, the moon does not cause tsunamis. The so called 'tidal wave' is not related to the tides at all. A tsunami is an ocean wave caused by an earthquake under the ocean floor. The large movement of the plates creates a huge water displacement that results in the creation of a very large wave.
Tsunamis are not a weather-related phenemenon. Their occurence does not depend on temperature.
Tsunamis and plates are some what related in one way tsunamis are related by the change in the earths epicenter. a landslide is related in two ways by an focus and a fault line. plates are related an forming of mountains and the turning of the types of plates. Plates shifting causes earthquakes which can cause landslides or tsunamis.
