A Tsunami is often caused by earthquakes under large bodies of water, but there are many causes (see the related questions for answers to what causes a tsunami). The force of the earthquake causes energy to surge in all directions through the water. When the energy comes close to land and the water becomes shallower, the energy, looking for a way to escape, forces the water upwards causing tsunami waves. All the energy pushes water inland for miles causing flooding and destruction.
On the land, the Tsunami is like an oceanic flash flood. Water just keeps pushing inland until the tsunami subsides. Tsunami waves can destroy buildings and either push everything (and everyone) in their wake inland, or pull them far out into the sea. Most people caught in the worst of a tsunami usually drown (see the related questions for more about what happens in a tsunami and what tsunamis can cause).
This natural phenomenon is also called "Runup and Inundation".
A major earthquake happens either underwater or near it. The resulting wave is the tsunami, and it goes until it runs out of energy. Sometimes that means a wave circling the globe multiple times, sometimes it means entire regions being destroyed and often many people killed.
The Tsunami is either caused by a metorite a earthquake or may other things when a Tsunami occurs people like scientists can track how close it is and how bad it will be. Tsunamis are a very rare event the worst ever tsunami was 2004 boxing day tsunami in the Indian ocean
Every thing is under water and destroyed. And the current pushes everything in the water if they don't stay on the ground
during the tsunami the sea or ocean waves comers higher with more force .It comes at the hieght even 10 to 30 meaters hieght.
The water rushes inland causing mass death and destruction. Gradually, the water will recede back into the ocean.
many people are dead the ocean is polluted no electricity
The ocean floor does nothing itself but to cause the tsunami an earthquake occurs causing a slight bump to the area of the ocean floor.
When tsunamis occur they wreck the land and all of the buildings and houses on it.
Tsunamis can tear down massive buildings
A tsunami is not a storm. It is a wave created by an earthquake or landslide. A tsunami can strike during any kind of weather.
A tsunami happens most often at Hawaii.
sometimes it happens that people doesn't know about the situation that they may face during tsunami.so, in order to avoid this,tsunami warning devices are effective to alarm people about the arriving tsunami so that that they could be mentally prepared to face the tsunami.
Obviously, the earthquake happens first and then tsunami follows.
when a tsunami enters shallow water there is imediate danger that a tsunami is about to strike...!!(: ENJOY.

the tsunami will get bigger every second and all the boats and ships will be destroyed because tsunamis are as strong as 60 hurricanes.

It disappears until the tsunami dies away. I don't know what happens to a tsunami but this is what I think.
It is hard to answer that question because a tsunami only happens when an earth quake happens near you.

The best place to stay during a tsunami is Tokyo because it has lots of natural disasters their.
A tsunami happened during the Indian Ocean tsunami in December 24 2004
Tsunamis are not wind-related events. Therefore, the wind you experience during a tsunamis is whatever it happens to be at the time.
