This is because earthquakes and tremors are common in Japan. That triggers tsunamis to occur
The frequency of earthquakes depends on the location. in Japan, earthquakes occur 3 times a month, and in the Sahara in Africa they occur once in five years..
Japan and Indonesia have it quite often.
It is on the Pacific Rim, where many earthquakes occur.
Japan gets tons of earthquakes, about one every year, because of Japan's position. Japan sits on a subduction zone, meaning plates slide under another causing friction and earthquakes. Sometimes, Japan will get a tsunami caused by their frequent earthquakes.
True
The Japanese archipelago is located in an area where several continental and oceanic plates meet. This is the cause of frequent earthquakes and the presence of many volcanoes and hot springs across Japan. If earthquakes occur below or close to the ocean, they may trigger tidal waves (tsunami).
Earthquakes ofetn occur on plate boundaries. Usually in Japan, Peru, Thailand although we have had some in Macnhester, Kent and Birmingham.
Yes, Japan is an earthquake-prone spot. Japan is more likely to have earthquakes than many other countries.
Japan has some kind of earthquake nearly every day most of which are small earthquakes. There are over 1,500 earthquakes per year in Japan. This is largely due to Japan being situated on the Pacific Ring of Fire which is a hotbed of seismic activity.
