Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Tsunamis are powerful waves generated by earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, or landslides that occur under or near the ocean. As the waves approach the shore, they can cause severe erosion and damage to the coastline. Examples of this can be seen in the aftermath of the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami or the 2011 Tohoku earthquake and tsunami in Japan.
