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.
tsunamis
It depends on the scale and location of the tornado or earthquake. Generally, earthquakes can cause more widespread destruction and loss of life due to their ability to affect large areas and trigger secondary hazards like tsunamis. However, tornadoes can be more intense in localized areas, causing significant damage in a short amount of time.
Earthquakes.
No. The Richter Scale rates the intensity of earthquakes. There is not intensity scale for tsunamis.
Earthquakes and tsunamis occur due to movement of the Earth's tectonic plates. When these plates shift or collide, it can result in seismic activity such as earthquakes. Tsunamis, on the other hand, are often caused by underwater earthquakes or volcanic eruptions that displace a large volume of water.
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.
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.

However, tornadoes can be more intense in localized areas, causing significant damage in a short amount of time.
earthquakes normally cause tsunamis to occur
Earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes, and tornadoes are all severe. It just depends on how strong they are and where they occur.
