What the differences between tsunamis and rouge waves?
a rouge wave is a wave in the ocean, and a tsunamis is a a wave made near a coast.
Tsunamis are what?
Tsunamis that are triggered by volcanic eruptions
Are Tsunamis twisting spirals of air?
Tsunamis are giant tidal waves.
Can tsunamis be refered to as seismic waves?
No. Seismic waves are the actual vibrations in the ground generate by an earthquake. Tsunamis are a different matter, nor are all tsunamis triggered by earthquakes.
How are tidal waves the same as tsunamis?
They are very different. Tidal waves are waves created by the gravitational pull of the moon, where tsunamis are created by an event such as an earthquake. Tsunamis can be very destructive. Both are made of water, there are not very many similarities between them.
When earthquakes occur what waves do they produce?
Seismic waves and tsunamis.
What are the best characteristics of tsunamis?
waves
Did Mississippi get hit by a tsunamis fron hurricane Katrina?

Can sumone surf a tsunamis?
No. Tsunamis don't curl and break like regular waves.
Why are they no longer called tidal waves?
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.
What is the name of giant sea waves caused by earthquake?
The name of giant sea waves caused by an earthquake is a tsunami. Tsunamis can travel across oceans at high speeds, carrying massive amounts of energy that can result in significant destruction when they reach land. It is important to have early warning systems in place to help mitigate the impact of tsunamis.
Do all tsunamis have huge waves that do a lot of damage?
No. Tsunamis and tidal waves are actually quite different. True tidal waves are just that - tidal waves. Tsunamis are usually triggered by underwater earthquakes, volcanoes or nearby seismic activity.
