Almost 80% of the world's tsunamis occur in the Pacific Ocean.
Tsunamis occur most often along countries which border the Pacific "Rim of Fire", or "Ring of Fire'. One end of this region of high sesmic and volcanic activity begins at New Zealand, heading northwest to Indonesia (completely bypassing Australia) and then west to Papua New Guinea and Indonesia, northeast along the Asian coastline, east to North America and then south along the western North American coastline.
Roughly horse-shoe shaped, the Ring of Fire extends about 40,000km long, and tsunamis can be generated anywhere along this rim.
Tsunamis occur as a result of seismic activity (earthquakes) at tectonic plate boundaries, specifically ocean trenches or mid-ocean ridges. Here, earthquakes and volcanic eruptions under the water will cause the displacement of massive amounts of water and hence a tsunami. Therefore, the Pacific Ring is always going to be a hot bed for tsunamis.
Tsunamis are most common in countries located in the Pacific Ring of Fire, such as Japan, Indonesia, and Chile. These countries experience frequent seismic activity that can trigger tsunamis.
Tsunami are waves caused by sudden movement of the ocean due to earthquakes, landslides on the sea floor, land slumping into the ocean, large volcanic eruptions or meteorite impact in the ocean.
Tsunamis are most common in regions around the Pacific Ocean, known as the Ring of Fire, due to frequent tectonic activity along subduction zones. They can also occur in other areas with significant earthquakes or volcanic eruptions that displace large volumes of water.
Tsunamis are not considered rare events, but their occurrence can vary depending on the location. Regions along the Pacific Ring of Fire, where tectonic activity is high, are more prone to tsunamis. While small tsunamis are common, large and destructive tsunamis are less frequent.

Tsunamis are caused by undersea landslides. There are many possible causes for undersea landslides, but the most common are undersea earthquakes.

Yes. Most tsunamis are triggered by earthquakes.
This is because earthquakes and tremors are common in Japan. That triggers tsunamis to occur
about 300 tsunamis happened world wide
According to research at the University of New South Wales, based in Sydney, the most common place for tsunamis to occur in Australia is New South Wales. Of the 145 tsunamis experienced along the coastline of the Australian continent in the last 140 years, 57 have been in New South Wales. Tasmania was next with 40 tsunamis, while there were 26 in Queensland and another 23 in Western Australia.
usually around the pacific ocean or ring/rim of fire
