A tsunami detection buoy is one of the primary instruments used to detect tsunamis. These buoys are equipped with sensors that can detect changes in water pressure caused by a tsunami wave passing overhead. The data collected by these buoys is then transmitted to monitoring stations to provide early warnings.
A tsunami is also known as a 'tidal wave', which used to be the more common term. These days, 'tsunami' seems to be the more commonly used name, at least in the Pacific rim countries where English or Japanese is spoken.
The term "Indian Ocean Tsunami" is used because the tsunami affected multiple countries surrounding the Indian Ocean, not just Indonesia. The impact of the tsunami was felt in countries such as Sri Lanka, India, Thailand, and others, leading to the broader geographical reference in the name.

You can't fight against tsunami's. You can only flee. That's why countries with risk of tsunami's have invested in a tsunami-warning system. But a well-built house always helps in comperison with cheap, slum-like buildings.
Tidal waves and seismic sea waves were used earlier for the same thing as a tsunami.
