A tsunami can occur at any time of day or night and in any season, as it is primarily triggered by underwater disturbances such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, or landslides. The most common locations for tsunamis are along tectonic plate boundaries in oceanic regions, particularly in the Pacific Ocean's "Ring of Fire." While they can strike with little warning, their impact is most severe in coastal areas near the source of the disturbance.
