How do tsunamis effect ocean life?
The tsunamis could carry the fish on to the shore and die.
How does tsunamis damage the lives of fisherman?
Tsunamis damage the lives of fisherman because, a Tsunami is so powerful that it washes them away.
What do tsunamis do to islands and coastlines?
damage
What damage do earthquakes tsunamis and landslides cause?
A lot of damage
Do tsunamis affect marine life?
Tsunamis can affect marine life by moving their habitats. For instance, if the water a fish is in move to shore, then the fish will move with it.
Where are tsunamis higher in the middle of the ocean or near shore?
Higher near shore. The land is denser than the water so the wave is higher.
How do you avoid damage from tsunamis?
By not living near the ocean!
Which is worse earthquakes or tsunamis?
Earthquakes are worse than tsunamis. Earthquakes are mostly unpredictable but tsunamis are sometimes predictable which sets warning for people to escape shore. Earthquakes destroy buildings but tsunamis don't. When tsunamis hit land, the buildings acts like a strong shield that cuts through the tsunami like what the wind-breaker does to the wind. Earthquakes can do more damage than tsunamis because earthquakes destroy buildings which takes much short time than rebuilding it which tsunamis only cause flash flooding which can be recovered as soon as possible. It's very difficult to escape an earthquake but it's sometimes easy to escape a tsunami. It's very difficult to recover the earthquake damage, therefore earthquakes are considered as the modest natural disaster.
Are storms worse on a shore of the ocean?
they do more damage to the shore
What are the causes and effects of tsunamis in points?
Tsunamis are caused by shifts in tectonic plates in the middle of the ocean. Once they come ashore, tsunamis can cause millions of dollars in property damage.
Near the shore tsunamis are higher or lower than average waves?
Tsunamis near the shore can be much higher than average waves because they are caused by underwater earthquakes or landslides, resulting in a massive displacement of water. This leads to a large wave with a much greater amplitude compared to normal waves.
What is a large water wave called?
A large water wave is called a "tsunami." Tsunamis are typically caused by underwater earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, or landslides, and they can cause significant damage and destruction when they reach shore.
