How Tsunamis form Tsunamis are formed as a result of earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, or landslides that occur under the sea. When these events occur under the water, huge amounts of energy are released as a result of quick upward bottom movement.

What happens in a tsunami? Three stages of tsunami Tsunami are different from wind swell waves and have three overlapping but quite distinct stages. Generation of tsunami is caused by any force that disturbs a water column. Propagation of this displaced water occurs as it moves across the deep ocean. When a tsunami is generated, the waves will spread out in all directions.

How to prepare and Track down for a tsunami Get to a high roof top or just move out of the area. Hear to a radio or TV for more news.

Tsunami effect with people It effects them because it damages their cars, house. People dead They have to clean up after the tsunami No water and food for days

Cleaning up after It is hard to clean up after because all of the cars and boat are everywhere. All of the trash that the tsunami brought from the ocean.

How big tsunamis get Their height, as they crash upon the shore, depends on the underwater surface features. They can be as high as 30 m (100 feet) or more.
