Can people predict tsunami's

Answer 1

If you mean a little bit before hand then the answer is yes you will see the water on the beaches go back into the ocean... thus the sign during the Tsunami that hit Asia a few years ago. The tourist thought Oh look the water is going back into the ocean lets look at all the fish... bad idea they got killed because of that. Another way to tell is if there is any Seismic activities in the middle of the ocean or close to the area of interest then there will most likely be a Tsunami.

Hope this helped

Answer 2

To a limited degree yes. If an earthquake of 6.5 magnitude or greater occurs underwater a tsunami watch is issued. If buoys detect the tsunami as it travels though open ocean a tsunami warning is issued.

Answer 3

While scientists can predict tsunamis based on seismic activity and other factors, it is not always possible to accurately predict when and where a tsunami will strike. Tsunami warning systems have been developed to help mitigate the impact of tsunamis in vulnerable areas.

Answer 4

Yes, Tsunami does give us a very little time. The waters begin to pull back very strongly as if it were being sucked in . This helps it gain a lot of power before it strikes
