what are the options to mitigate the effects of a tsunami on an area
The tsunami and earthquake in Japan can be severe, causing widespread destruction and loss of life. The impact depends on the magnitude of the earthquake and the proximity of the affected area to the epicenter. Japan is well-prepared for such events, with early warning systems and building codes that help mitigate the damage.
Yes. If a certain area has a group of animals living in a compact space, that species could become extinct easily. Also, a tsunami could cover a large area, harming species and the food chain which could later lead to extinction.
The water will still be flooding the area, and is it likely that sea life may suffer. Depending on the seriousness of the wave, buildlings and houses could be destroyed, there will almost always be people and pets missing. In short, the effects are damage to property and life.
Yes. There is a tsunami watch is issued if a tsunami may impact an area. A tsunami advisory is issued if a tsunami poses a threat to areas in or along the water. A tsunami warning is issued if a tsunami is expected to cause widespread flooding.
Local and regional are two different types that are based on one person's perspective. If a tsunami is regional, that means that it is in one area. If a tsunami is local, that means that it is in MY area, or very close to where I am.
have berms to mitigate blast effects, be obscured by camouflage, and obstruct observation of search area from outside the installation.

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.

yes they are if they are in the area of a tsunami

If you mean Tsunami, well the whole reason a tsunami happens is because of a earthquake , the tsunami reacts and gives out a earthquake in the sea, so the tsunami pushes the waves on land causing the area to be flouded
Escape to an area of high altitude.
Japan
A tsunami is stronger, buth in terms of energy released and destructive potential. Both can cause total devstation, but a tsunami can do so over a muchlarger area.
The earthquake slightly damaged Tokyo, and the tsunami only hit the north Japan area.
