Tsunami
i have heard about it when i was in the 10th standard but i felt it when i was studying my final year diploma the disastrous created by it so horrible i did not know that is the tsunami . Then i came to know that tsunami comes is by the earthquake under the water ie., sea which raise the water to move with high speeds. you can also try that by using a balloon i a tub ie., fill the air in the balloon and places it at the bottom of the tub take a pin and press that to the balloon when it is under water u will experience the balloon explodes and the water moves like large waves with speed try it once.

In fact, the earthquake natural disaster and the tsunami not the new matter.
Mentioned the earthquake in Alor and Nabire some last time.
I the feeling of the geologists could in Indonesia estimate the phenomenon of the earthquake that has happened in recent times (if still could not, hopefully could be the topic of the serious research, in view of the fact that his impact was very serious).
Unfortunately, although the earthquake has happened repeatedly, casualties who emerged also were not able to be pressed.

I know about tsunamis, as I learned about thwem when I was at school... anyway, I geuss that in those places, such as Indonesia, everyone should be taught about tsunamis, their causes and also, how to detect one...

Tsunami was a black past in the life of the mankind.It was the worst experience for those suffered from tsunamy.It has prooved thet nature is supreme and man is nothing in front of nature and if man tries to challenge nature then he himself will be responsible for his end.

hey tsunami is of simple logic but very dangerous, example fill the bucket with water just pull it without lifting it the water will rise one side decrease on other . thats tsunami. that is when earths upper bed shifts the water similarly acts as water in the bucket .it cannot be stopped nor be altered prevention is to evacuate the people.

I know about them from hearing about past ones and watching tv shows. If it wasn't for the many documentaries that have been done of them. I wouldn't have a clue. It just goes to prove mother nature will always be stronger...take heed.

Tsunami is a great disaster, in other words tsunami called tidal waves. Twoo years ago there was an great earthquake in some parts of southeast asia which causes greatest Tsunami. Lately in my hometown, Manado -we had some several earthquakes, but I'm glad it doesn't causes tsunami.
