Tsunamis

hopefully if you live in a building that is already made for typhoons and tsunamies, aka: a conctrete building, preferably you should just be able to go in your house, load up on spam (in a can spam) and shut your windows keeping your house protected by window shutters or find a shelter and bring spam.

Then, eat the spam as you watch the tsunami take it's toll.

ask someone who still lives in Guam for better advice.

LOL...

Waves in the open ocean are called ocean waves. These waves are generated by the wind and can travel vast distances across the ocean. Ocean waves can vary in size and strength depending on factors like wind speed and duration.

The Boxing Day tsunami, which occurred on December 26, 2004, caused widespread destruction across several countries bordering the Indian Ocean. It led to the loss of over 230,000 lives and caused extensive damage to infrastructure, homes, and coastal communities. The disaster also affected the environment, including coral reefs and coastal ecosystems.

When one of the earth's plates shifts, one of the plates can move upwards and make a wave that can stand anywhere ranging from 1 foot, to a 100+ foot tall wall of water. the bigger the wave, the more damage the tsunami can cause, for instance, it has in the past made islands smaller than they used to be.

hope this helps.

It will be soon! The movie come some time in february!

Australia became involved in the aftermath of the Boxing Day Tsunami in 2004 as part of international humanitarian efforts to provide aid and assistance to affected countries in the region, including Indonesia and Thailand. The devastation caused by the tsunami prompted Australia to contribute resources, expertise, and funding to support relief and recovery efforts in the affected areas.

Lisbon, the capital of Portugal, was almost destroyed by the 1755 tsunami.

No, Thailand is a separate country located in Southeast Asia. Indonesia is a different country that is also located in Southeast Asia, but they are two distinct nations with separate borders and governments.

Tidal waves, also known as tsunamis, do not have a higher weight at night compared to the daytime. Tsunamis are caused by underwater earthquakes and have constant force independent of time of day. The perception of increased weight at night may be due to factors like poor lighting, noise levels, or psychological factors.

Earthquakes are caused when two continental plates slide together. The crust of the earth is not one piece, but many that move extremely slowly. Only sliding plates can cause earthquakes. Hope this helped!

Tsunamis are capable of causing widespread destruction by generating powerful waves that can inundate coastal areas, leading to flooding, erosion, and debris damage. They can also be dangerous due to their ability to travel long distances across the ocean, impacting multiple regions. Tsunamis can have devastating impacts on infrastructure, communities, and even ecosystems.

well im not sure what specifically caused this particular tsunami, but generally tsunamis occur because of plates moving on the earths surface below the ocean. plates often slide apart, close together, and they even slide right into eachother. this a causes huge waves forming tsunamis.

Groundwater depletion can trigger earthquakes in some cases by changing the stress on faults in the Earth's crust. When groundwater is removed, the crust can rebound, increasing stress on faults and potentially leading to earthquakes. However, the link between groundwater depletion and earthquakes is not always clear and depends on a variety of factors.

A seismic sea wave is commonly known as a tsunami. It is a series of ocean waves generated by a sudden displacement of the ocean floor, typically caused by an underwater earthquake, volcanic eruption, or landslide. Tsunamis can travel long distances across the ocean and cause widespread destruction when they reach land.

Yes, a tsunami travels outward from its epicenter in a series of waves in all directions. The energy generated by an undersea earthquake causes the ocean water to displace and form a tsunami that spreads across the ocean.

Safer construction practices for tsunamis include building structures on elevated ground, using flexible building materials to absorb the impact of the waves, creating sturdy foundations, and ensuring that buildings have multiple evacuation routes and safe gathering points. It is also important to have early warning systems in place and to educate residents on evacuation procedures.

Fast tsunamis travel in deep water because they have long wavelengths and low amplitudes, allowing them to move quickly with minimal energy loss. The speed of a tsunami is determined by the depth of the water it is traveling through, with deeper water supporting faster wave propagation. Tsunamis are not affected by surface friction in deep water, which also contributes to their fast travel speed.

...Ever hear of Hawaii? -different person now- There aren't just lava volcanoes underwater but there are hydrothermal vents, which instead of lava, spew gas, water, and heat. They are basically underwater volcanoes. Go look at pictures of them, they're really weird.

There are a very large number of underwater volcanoes at the Mid-Ocean-Ridges deep below the ocean's surface. These erupt lava directly into the ocean where it cools extremely rapidly forming pillow basalts.

No, a tsunami is a series of ocean waves caused by a large and sudden displacement of water, such as an underwater earthquake or volcanic eruption. These waves can travel across oceans and may consist of multiple crests and troughs.

Tsunamis will sometimes go undetected until they draw near shallow waters along a coast. Tsunamis are recurrent in Japan. Approximately 195 events have been recorded. Due to the immense volumes of water and energy involved, tsunamis can devastate coastal regions. Casualties can be high because the waves move faster than humans can run. These waves have outsized wave length (up to several hundred miles) that is a function of the depth of the water where they were formed. Although these waves have a small height, there is a tremendous amount of energy linked with them. As an effect of this huge amount of energy, these waves can become gigantic as they approach shallow water. As they crash upon the shore there height depends on the underwater surface features.

They can reach up to 100 to 300 feet. The world's largest tsunami ever recorded was in Lituya Bay, Alaska on July 9, 1958. The waves reached up to the height of 1,638 to 1,720 feet high. It was triggered by a landslide and an earthquake with a magnitude of 8.3.

Tidal outflows are called ebb currents. Ebb currents occur when water flows away from the shore as the tide goes out.

Tsunamis are caused by underwater earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, or landslides that displace a large volume of water. These events typically occur near the coast, where the energy generated can travel towards the shore and create large waves. In the middle of the sea, the energy from these events dissipates in various directions, reducing the likelihood of a tsunami forming.

A magnitude 6 earthquake emits roughly 31 times more energy than a magnitude 5 earthquake. The magnitude 6 quake will also have a maximum seismic wave amplitude of ten times the magnitude 5 earthquake.
