Tsurnamy by caiden

 https://www.nationalgeographic.com/environment/2007/04/tsunami-facts-saftey-tips/ hi my name is caiden and today I will be explaining the Tsunamis in japan


I'm going to talk about Tsunamis, how they are made, where Tsunamis have happened, and the warning signs of a Tsunami. The word tsunami comes from Japan because Japan has experienced many tsunamis over the years.


Tsunamis are giant waves caused by underwater earthquakes or Volcanic eruptions.

 Tsunami waves do not dramatically increase.Tsunamis can occur in any major body of water. A Tsunami can be caused by a giant meteor, although this is rare.

Scientists have evidence to believe an asteroid-collision created a giant tsunami that swept around the Earth several times, flooding everything except the tallest mountains 3.5 billion years ago. The coastline of continents was changed dramatically and almost all life on land was exterminated.


 In 2004 there was a tsunami In Indonesia that happened on boxing day there were 100-foot waves. There were 230,000 people killed. It was the day after Christmas and thousands of European and American tourists had flocked to the beaches of Thailand, Sri Lanka, and Indonesia to escape the cold winter.
