A tsunami wave train is a series of waves caused by the displacement of large amounts of ocean water. They are often very destructive when they make landfall, and are caused by earthquakes, landslides, underwater volcanos and explosions, and other water disturbances.
There are tsunamis and there are tsunami trains. A tsunami is generated by an underwater earthquake. A new tsunami has to wait for a new earthquake. It is not uncommon for any earthquake to be followed by one or more aftershocks within a matter of hours or days, so a new tsunami can result similarly. Since earthquake behavior is notoriously unpredictable, so is tsunami generation. A single tsunami results in a series of waves with periods ranging from minutes to hours. This is called the tsunami "wave train". There is more information in the related links.
Tsunami- i guess as i am studying them & the waves go like a train over land
There's no definite number, it usually starts with one and continues with a series of waves for a few minutes often referred as a Tsunami Wave Train. Sometimes the waves can last an hour causing major destruction. It can go as high as 15-30 feet.
