What is a tsunameter?
Tsunameters are devices installed in the ocean to detect and measure the waves of a tsunami
How do you measure the strength of a tsunami?
The usual measure of a tsunami is the height of the wave just as it reaches the beach.
What equipment do they use to predict a a tsunami?
a seismometer (detects earthquakes and measures power on ritcher scale) or a tsunameter (detects a tsunami's power, is put underwater)
About what is the air pressure during a tsunami?
Air pressure is not a factor in tsunami formation. Tsunamis usually originate from undersea earthquakes and landslides.
What is the average water pressure of a tsunami?
It will be different according to how big the tsunami is. There is no simple answer to your question.
How are tsunamis measured?
A tsunameter.

Can tsunamis be measured?
The Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory developed the first reliable scientific instrument for detecting tsunamis and quickly alerting scientist when tsunami occurs. The instrument, known as TSUNAMETER, is anchored on the ocean floor and measures changes in water pressure when a tsunami passes above.

How is a tsunami wave detected?
A tsunami wave can be detected by a wave gauge and pressure monitors.

How much Pressure can a Tsunami give?
nothing
Why did some of the houses get destroyed in the tsunami in japan?
It got destroyed because the force or pressure of the tsunami was too strong.
When tsunami most likely to occur?
when two plates move inside the earth and build up pressure and then the pressure s released causing an earthquake. after the earthquake if it big enough then it will cause a tsunami
