How are volcanoes earthquakes and tsunamis related?
A volcanic eruption can cause an earthquake and an earthquake underwater can cause a tsunami.
Which of the following is the most likely way in which a volcanic event off the coast of Japan count significantly affect the coast of California?
(APEX) An undersea earthquake could cause a tsunami that crosses the ocean.
What is generally not a natural hazard caused by a volcanic eruption?
Generally, a volcanic eruption does not cause a tsunami. While volcanic eruptions can trigger tsunamis if they occur underwater or lead to landslides into the ocean, these events are not inherent to the eruption itself. Other natural hazards associated with volcanic eruptions include lava flows, ashfall, pyroclastic flows, and gas emissions. Thus, while related phenomena may happen, a tsunami is not a direct result of the eruption.
What are the three causes of a tsunami?
Tsunami waves can be caused by a major earthquake or landslide on the sea flow. Another cause is from the land slumping into the ocean or a large volcanic eruption.
Do tsunamis cause more deaths than volcanic eruptions?
yes because tsunami can grow bigger than a volcano eruption
What is a huge sea wave caused by an earthquake or a volcanic eruption called?
The large sea wave initiated by an earhquake, volcanic eruption or even a meteorite is called a Tsunami
Can a tsunami cause a volcanic eruption?
If a volcano blows apart a a large piece slides into the sea a large wave (tsunami) will be created. When Cumbre Vieja in La Palma eventually collapses into the Atlantic it could generate a 2000 feet high wave rushing across the Atlantic at 500 mph.
What magnitude generate tsunami?
Tsunamis can be generated by earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, or landslides underwater. The magnitude of the earthquake or the volume of material displaced by a volcanic eruption or landslide are important factors that determine the size and strength of the resulting tsunami.
Volcanic ash from an eruption is hazardoes because?
could mix with snow and water to cause mudslides
What are large volcanoes that rise from the sea floor called?
Large volcanoes that rise from the sea floor are called seamounts or underwater volcanoes. These formations are created by volcanic activity beneath the ocean's surface and can vary in size and shape.
Did the earthquake in Haiti cause a volcanic eruption?
No
What were the economic effects of mount Pelee eruptions?
Volcanic eruption can cause a lot of destruction, and kill millions of organisms around it. It can cause a tsunami as well. For example, if there was a volcanic eruption in Hawaii, then from that, a tsunami could hit Japan. The energy released from the volcanoe would hit the water and create a new disaster, the tsunami.
