A Tsunami is caused by an Earthquake. The ground or area of land shakes which causes a small to large wave in a body of water, which is a Tsunami. An aftershock tends to be a couple of smaller earthquakes, after a large earthquake that you are able to feel. Tons of earthquakes can occur throughout the day, but they have a big enough decimal to actually be able to feel them.
What else can I help you with?
Do tsunami s have aftershocks?
No, tsunamis do not have aftershocks. Aftershocks are typically associated with earthquakes and are smaller earthquakes that follow the main event. Tsunamis are large ocean waves usually triggered by underwater earthquakes, landslides, or volcanic eruptions.
Are earthquakes related to tsunamis?
Yes. Most tsunamis are triggered by earthquakes.
Are earthquakes related to landslides or tsunamis?
Earthquakes can trigger both landslides and tsunamis.
What are the natural disasters that an earthquake can make occur?
Earthquakes can trigger natural disasters such as tsunamis, landslides, and aftershocks. Tsunamis are large ocean waves caused by underwater seismic activity, while landslides can be triggered by shaking of the earth's surface. Aftershocks are smaller earthquakes that follow the main earthquake event.
What are four ways the earthquakes cause damage?
It is Tsunamis, Aftershocks, Liquefaction, and Shaking.
Why tsunamis do not occur after earthquake?
Aftershocks are the results of the Pressure Plates being unstable, and are still adjusting or moving. The earthquake from September 4, 2010 in Christchurch will be having aftershocks for about 1 and a half more years.
What causes most earthquakes related deaths and injuries?
Aftershocks cause the most earthquake-related deaths and injuries.
Are any natural disasters related?
Tsunamis are related to earthquakes in that earthquakes happen underwater, creating Tsunamis. Volcanoes are somewhat related to earthquakes in that some warning signs of volcanoes are tiny earthquakes, created by the movement of magma and the swelling of the volcano. Other than that, I don't think so.
Are tsunamis and earthquake related?
Absolutely. Earthquakes can cause tsunamis, just like with Indonesia back in 2004.
Are there going to be aftershocks of the tornado?
Tornadoes don't have aftershocks, earthquakes do.
Do hurricanes have aftershocks?
No. Aftershocks are a phenomenon that occur only with earthquakes.
What categorize for weather related for tsunami?
