Some submarine, landslides, and other disturbance.

What causes tsunamis?
Large earthquakes on the ocean floor over 20 seconds long.
What does the word tsunami mean?
Tsunami means Harbor Wave in Japanese.

Waves usually come several minutes apart sometimes even hours apart.

Technologies used to determine potential tsunamis are deep ocean tsunamis detection buoys, and seismic sensors.

If a tsunami is coming towards your town evacuate inland. The farther away from shore the better.]]> 2018-04-26 18:18:52 UTC https://padlet.com/bracken_hunter/Fluff/wish/255781417 bracken_hunter https://padlet.com/bracken_hunter/Fluff/wish/255788392 Before:
