Do tsunamis occur because of the strong winds from the ocean air?
No. Tsunamis are caused by earthquakes, when a large volume of water is displaced by an under sea landslide
Tsunamis are what?
Tsunamis that are triggered by volcanic eruptions
What causes tsunamis floods?
No. Tsunamis are classified as huge tidal waves. Tsunamis cause floods when the waves hit the shore and the water rushes inland.
Who have concluded that the volcanic eruption caused a tidal wave?
Scientists and researchers studying historical records, geology, and the impact of past volcanic eruptions have concluded that under certain circumstances, volcanic eruptions can trigger tsunamis or tidal waves. An example of this is the eruption of Krakatoa in 1883, which caused a series of devastating tsunamis in the region.
What are the causes and effects of tsunamis in points?
Tsunamis are caused by shifts in tectonic plates in the middle of the ocean. Once they come ashore, tsunamis can cause millions of dollars in property damage.
What are the causes of tsunami and steps taken to prevent the disasters?
tsunamis are often caused by earthquakes, under the water and on land.
Are tsunamis caused by tidal waves?
no it is caused by earthquakes
Do tsunamis occur because of the strong winds from the ocean air?
No. Tsunamis are caused by earthquakes, when a large volume of water is displaced by an under sea landslide
Can tornado winds form tsunamis?
No. Tsunamis are not caused by wind. They are generally caused by underwater earthquakes or landslides. Tornadoes have caused water levels to fluctuate while crossing small lakes, but this phenomenon is more similar to seiches than to tsunamis.
Tsunamis are what?
Tsunamis that are triggered by volcanic eruptions
Is a tsunami caused by the wheather nature or by humans?
Tsunamis are caused by earthquakes.
Is tsunamis always caused by earthquakes?
yes
Does Tsunamis have weather?
no tsunamis does not have weather they are caused by the interior movements of the earth like earthquakes volcano etc.
Can people cause tsunamis?
This is hard to answer because of the definition of tsunami. Certainly people are not able to create tsunamis like the one that struck Japan recently. However some tsunamis are small and of little note. Since tsunamis can be caused by underwater faults, small faults and thus small water pulses can be caused by the pumping of oil from under the sea. Also, the hydrogen bomb test at Bikini Atoll caused a tsunami like wave. I'm not sure whether is was considered an official tsunami, but some definitions say tsunamis are generated by any large, impulsive displacement of the sea level. The hydrogen bomb certainly caused a large, impulsive displacement of the sea level so by this definition it caused a tsunami.
What causes tsunamis floods?
No. Tsunamis are classified as huge tidal waves. Tsunamis cause floods when the waves hit the shore and the water rushes inland.
Why does tsunamis happen more than typhoons?
Typhooons are the result of a complex combination of weather conditions and a typhoon only occurs when all factors combine simultaneously. Tsunamis are caused by earthquakes under the ocean, they have nothing to do with weather conditions.
What are the names of waves caused by earthquakes?
They are called Tsunamis.
