How can you prevent tsunamis?

Unless you know how to tie tectonic plates together so they can't move about or you know how to prevent other geological activity, the answer is no: You cannot prevent a tsunami. However, you can prevent a tsunami from completely destroying a human population by giving people a chance to run away from the tsunami, given prior warning. I'm sure there is some kind of tsunami detector, probably resembling a seismometer.
