About Tsunami
A tsunami is a series of large tidal waves caused by the displacement of a large body of water. The immense volume and energy involved in a tsunami can have devastating effect on coastal regions. Normally, a tsunami is the result of an earthquake, volcano, or underwater landslide that quickly shifts a huge body of water.
