Tsunamographs are anchored, ocean-bottom apparatuses developed by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and used as part of the Deep-ocean Assessment and Reporting of Tsunamis system to measure and categorize tsunamis. The ocean-bottom apparatus recognizes and reports changes in pressure that occur when water levels change, and then transmit a signal to bouys which measure wave height and transmit all of that information to satellites. This information is used to track and forecast the progress of tsunami waves, which can then help categorize the strength and speed of each tsunami.

Scientists use tide gauges, seismometers, and ocean buoys to categorize tsunamis. These instruments help in monitoring changes in sea levels, detecting seismic activity that triggers tsunamis, and measuring different parameters such as wave height and wave period. By analyzing data collected from these instruments, scientists can assess the size, speed, and potential impact of a tsunami.

What definition is used to categorize instruments into the classification of idiophone?
An idiophone must not use any mechanical means to create sound. An example of an idiophone is a xylophone. The metal of the xylophone vibrates to create sound.
What do scientist use to predict a tsunami?
They use a seismograph to predict tsunamis.
