No. There were large waves, but waves produce by hurricanes and other storms, not matter how big, are not tsunamis. Tsunamis are a very different type of wave.
No. Tsunamis are classified as huge tidal waves. Tsunamis cause floods when the waves hit the shore and the water rushes inland.
Tsunamis can cause devastating effects on coastlines by producing large and powerful waves that can inundate coastal areas, erode beaches, and destroy buildings and infrastructure. The force of the water can also carry debris, sediment, and pollutants inland, causing further damage. Additionally, tsunamis can alter coastal ecosystems and habitats, impacting marine life and biodiversity.
No. Tsunamis may only be a few centimetres high in DEEP water but as the water depth decreases the wave height increases.
Wind speed itself does not directly affect tsunamis. Tsunamis are usually caused by underwater seismic activity, such as earthquakes or volcanic eruptions, which generate large waves that can travel across the ocean. However, strong winds can potentially impact the propagation of tsunamis by influencing wave height or speed in coastal areas.
a rouge wave is a wave in the ocean, and a tsunamis is a a wave made near a coast.
may be 1000 trillion gallons of water in a tsunamis wave
Tsunamis
Some people call tsunamis tidal waves but the word tsunami means "harbor wave" (tsu=harbor, nami=wave) so tsunamis have nothing to do with the tides.
A tsunamis has a wave that is longer in length and looks like a fast rising tide rather than a traditional wave. A tidal wave is a wave that can reach as about a hundred feet tall and will look like a normal wave.
For water waves, the tsunamis reach the greatest heights
a tsunamie is a serious ocean wave
Yes. I tsunami is a form of tidal wave.
For one thing, the one that just happened in Japan.
Yes. I tsunami is a form of tidal wave.
The highest sea waves are tsunamis
it is actually one, incredibly fast moving wave. contrary to common belief, they are not usually tall as much as they are thick. some tsunamis can be over 30 feet thick
