Because the tectonic plates are very active.
tsunamis
Earthquakes.
Because Britain isn't near any fault lines on land or in the ocean. Fault lines are the edges of Tectonic plates, there are 7 main ones. San Andreas is over a big fault line so it gets lots of earthquakes
Earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and tsunamis are natural disasters that can occur in the Eurasian Plate. The plate's boundaries are characterized by intense tectonic activity, leading to the potential for significant seismic events and volcanic activity. This can result in various hazards such as ground shaking, landslides, and tsunamis along coastal regions.
No. The Richter Scale rates the intensity of earthquakes. There is not intensity scale for tsunamis.
Tsunamis mostly occur in the Pacific Ocean because they are made because of Earthquakes and lots of earthquakes happen in the ring of fire.
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.
tsunamis are caused by massive earthquakes, flooding and other natural disasters (etc) so therefore there is no possible wat that you can prevent a tsunami from happening or lessen the risk of getting one.
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.
because japan sit on top of a tectonic plate which if it rumbles would cause an earth quake which would then lead to a tsunami.
Well there are two common things in japan 1 . there are lots of earthquakes , they are one of the most dangerous ones . 2 . there are lots of tsunamis in japan as well .
