The pacific plate slides across the North American plate for example, which causes tsunamis to form do to underwater earthquakes
Because it does.
Yes, tsunamis have hit the Pacific Ocean. The Pacific Ocean is known for being part of the Pacific Ring of Fire, which is an area prone to earthquakes and volcanic activity. These events can trigger tsunamis that can affect countries bordering the Pacific Ocean.
Tsunamis mostly occur in the Pacific Ocean because they are made because of Earthquakes and lots of earthquakes happen in the ring of fire.
in the pacific ocean because of the ring of fire (where a lot of active volcanoes are)
It mostly happen in the pacific ocean
Yes. They are called Tsunamis.
It mostly happen in the pacific ocean
mainly in the Pacific Ocean , close to the ring of fire
80% of tsunamis happen in the pacific ocean. they are common in hawaii. also in japan, new zealand, even Asia
Approximately 81% of tsunamis occur within the Pacific Ocean's "Ring of Fire," which is a horseshoe-shaped area with intense seismic activity. The remaining 19% can occur in other ocean basins due to underwater earthquakes, landslides, volcanic eruptions, or meteorite impacts.
two times ones in Indian ocean and another in pacific ocean
Tsunamis can occur in any large body of water. The main reason they are more common in the Pacific is because of the large amount of tectonic activity. Tsunamis are usually caused by either an underwater earthquake, or a near water volcanic eruption. Due to the amount of volcanos in the Pacific Ocean region and the tectonic activity (which causes earthquakes) there are many more tsunamis in the Pacific than in the Atlantic.
