Tidal wave
The succession of waves is called a tsunami.
When an underwater earthquake displacing a large volume of sea water the effect could be a tsunami (tidal wave).
Tsunami, also called Kamikazis
Its called a Tsunami, Japan just had one and was devastated!
A tsunami is a sea wave caused by an underwater earthquake that displaces a large volume of water, leading to the propagation of powerful waves across the ocean. Tsunamis can result in devastating coastal flooding and destruction due to their high energy and long wavelength.
A sea wave created when a seafloor slips after an underwater earthquake is called a tsunami. Tsunamis can travel across the ocean, carrying a large amount of energy and causing significant damage when they reach the coast. They are characterized by their long wavelengths and high speed.
The term "seismic sea wave" has been found in geological and oceanographic texts, and typically is another term for a tsunami. Earthquakes at underwater subduction zones (where one tectonic plate moves beneath another) are the leading cause of tsunamis. Not all tsunamis are caused by earthquakes, however; other causes may include underwater volcanos, landslides, and underwater explosions (such as nuclear devices).

Yes, the word 'tsunami' is a noun, a word for an enormous sea wave caused by an underwater earthquake or volcanic eruption; a word for a thing.
An underwater structure can affect the propagation of a wave by causing the wave to change direction, speed up, slow down, or even break. The structure can also cause the wave to reflect, refract, or diffract, altering its intensity and direction. Overall, the presence of an underwater structure can significantly impact how a wave behaves in the water.
It just sits there and gets grinded to pieces slowing the wave down
