generallly tsunamis r the aftr effects of earthquakes as the quivering of some plates under the earth wich balances the earth ,shaks an results in the imbalance of the movements of plate converging an diverging bcomes unrivallddd hence it results in the tsunami or strong beat of the wavs 2wards the shore .......
THE EARTHQUAKE IS THE RESULT OF THE PRESSURE RELEASE BETWEEN TWO TECTONIC PLATES; THIS CAUSES THE SEA CRUST TO MOVE OR VIBATE WHICH RESULTS IN A TSUNAMI
The plate boundary between the Nazca Plate and the South American Plate does produce volcanoes, earthquakes, and tsunamis. Hurricanes have nothing to do with plate boundaries.
tsunamis
Earthquakes.
No. The Richter Scale rates the intensity of earthquakes. There is not intensity scale for tsunamis.
Earthquakes are worse than tsunamis. Earthquakes are mostly unpredictable but tsunamis are sometimes predictable which sets warning for people to escape shore. Earthquakes destroy buildings but tsunamis don't. When tsunamis hit land, the buildings acts like a strong shield that cuts through the tsunami like what the wind-breaker does to the wind. Earthquakes can do more damage than tsunamis because earthquakes destroy buildings which takes much short time than rebuilding it which tsunamis only cause flash flooding which can be recovered as soon as possible. It's very difficult to escape an earthquake but it's sometimes easy to escape a tsunami. It's very difficult to recover the earthquake damage, therefore earthquakes are considered as the modest natural disaster.
Yes. Earthquakes at subduction zones can trigger tsunamis.
Yes. Most tsunamis are triggered by earthquakes.
Earthquakes are one (but not the only) cause of tsunamis.
Mo, they are known as earthquakes but the earthquakes cause the tsunamis.
Earthquakes can trigger both landslides and tsunamis.
Tsunamis do not not cause earthquakes at all. Tsunamis are usually the result of an undersea earthquake.
The plate boundary between the Nazca Plate and the South American Plate does produce volcanoes, earthquakes, and tsunamis. Hurricanes have nothing to do with plate boundaries.
Well, earthquakes do cause tsunamis. But only underwater earthquakes. Plus, they have to be a transform plate boundary earthquake(caused by subduction).Any displacement of water will cause a tsunami. In short, some underwater earthquakes cause tsunamis.
tsunamis
Of these things, earthquakes are the only ones that can cause tsunamis.
earthquakes at sea
earthquakes normally cause tsunamis to occur
