On December 26, 2004, the strong earthquake on Earth spawned unprecedented tsunami waves that leveled cities and villages across the region. Almost 230,000 people in 11 countries perished and millions were displaced. Tsunami are large, powerful waves caused by sudden displacement of large quantities of water in the sea. Common causes for the displacement of large quantities of water are: earth quakes, volcanic activity and landslides.
As the wave of a tsunami moves into shallower water, it gets much higher, so they can be very big and very destructive when they hit coastal areas. Sometimes the water will recede just before a tsunami strikes a coastal region. Going further out than a normal low tide in a very short time then you really get out of there as quickly as possible and seek safety..................
