What else can I help you with?
Do scientists measure tsunamis from space?
Yea they do =)
Is there a scale to measure the intensity of a tsunamis?
yes
Do you measure tsunamis and earthquakes on the Richter scale?
Yes, you do however you can also measure it by deaths and casualties.
How do people study tsunamis?
they are caused by earthquakes and the scientist measure the earthquake magnitude and the predict.
What do scientist use to predict a tsunami?
They use a seismograph to predict tsunamis.
What does the Richter scale for tsunamis mean?
The Richter scale is a measure of the intensity of earthquakes. It does not indicate how large a tsunami will be.
Can coastal tidal gauges stop tsunamis close to shore?
No. Tidal gauges only measure water levels.
What instruments do they use to categorize tsunamis?
Tsunamographs are anchored, ocean-bottom apparatuses developed by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and used as part of the Deep-ocean Assessment and Reporting of Tsunamis system to measure and categorize tsunamis. The ocean-bottom apparatus recognizes and reports changes in pressure that occur when water levels change, and then transmit a signal to bouys which measure wave height and transmit all of that information to satellites. This information is used to track and forecast the progress of tsunami waves, which can then help categorize the strength and speed of each tsunami.
Tsunamis are what?
Tsunamis that are triggered by volcanic eruptions
What is the effect of the earthquake?
They cause tsunamis
How can tsunamis be prevented?
Unfortunately there is nothing we can do to prevent tsunamis.
Do tsunamis have jellyfish?
