Coastal populations in low-lying areas near tectonic plate boundaries are at the highest risk of tsunamis. Countries along the Pacific Ring of Fire, such as Indonesia, Japan, and Chile, face significant threats due to frequent seismic activity. Additionally, islands and communities with limited warning systems and inadequate infrastructure are particularly vulnerable. Overall, those living in proximity to the ocean in seismically active regions face the greatest danger.
What else can I help you with?
What is a wave that causes the most deadly destruction during an earthquake?
Tsunami
What is the term for an water wave created by an earthquake?

How do you avoid the tsunami in future?
You can reduce effect of tsunami but there is no way you can avoid it for certain, area which are most likely to get hit by tsunami are area near sea and ocean (large amount of water) and area which also has high earthquake zone. If you are not affected by these two factors you are very unlikely to get hit by the tsunami.
Why tsunami do not always occur even when there is an earthquake?
The creation of a tsunami depends on several factors:magnitude - generally needs to be 7 or higherearthquake must be located under the ocean so that water is movedtype of fault movement. When plates move up or down, this tends to move the most water, and is most likely to produce a tsunami
Water displaced by an undersea earthquake may produce what?

Is there a risk of tsunami in Malta?
Malta is located in the Mediterranean Sea, which is not typically prone to tsunamis. The region is not located near tectonic plate boundaries where most tsunamis are generated. Therefore, the risk of a tsunami in Malta is considered very low.
Which Australian capital city is most likely to get hit by a tsunami?
Sydney is most likely to get hit by a tsunami, because it is the only capital city in Australia which is in a high tsunami risk zone. But don't be worried, Australia is relatively sheltered from earthquakes and tsunamis, so the chance of getting hit by a tsunami is still quite low.
Where should people that are at risk go when a tsunami is coming?

When was the most recent tsunami reported by the west coastAlaska tsunami warning center?
I think it was the Tsunami in 2004.
What is used to fight against tsunami?
You can't fight against tsunami's. You can only flee. That's why countries with risk of tsunami's have invested in a tsunami-warning system. But a well-built house always helps in comperison with cheap, slum-like buildings.
