How tsunamis effect a coastline?
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.

How does wind speed affect tsunamis?
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.
