Under favourable geological conditions, when a large earthquake occurs below the sea bed and the resultant rupture causes a vertical displacement of the ocean bed, the entire column of water above it is displaced, causing a tsunami. In the ocean, tsunamis do not reach great heights but can travel at velocities of up to 1000 km/hour. As a tsunami reaches shallow sea depths, there is a decrease in its velocity and an increase in its height. Tsunamis are known to have reached heights of several tens of meters and inundate several kilometres inland from the shore. Tsunamis can also be caused by displacement of substantial amounts of water by landslides, volcanic eruptions, glacier calving and rarely by meteorite impacts and nuclear tests in the ocean..In this SpringerBrief, the causes of tsunamis, their intensity and magnitude scales, global distribution and a list of major tsunamis are provided. The three great tsunamis of 1755, 2004 and2011are presented in detail. The 1755 tsunami caused by the Lisbon earthquake, now estimated to range from Mw 8.5 to 9.0, was the most damaging tsunami ever in the Atlantic ocean. It claimed an estimated 1 | 出版日期 | Book 2013 | 关键词 | Global List of Major Tsunamis; Indian Ocean Tsunami; Japan Tsunami; Lisbon Earthquake Mw 8; 5-9; 0; Lisbon | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-007-6576-4 | isbn_softcover | 978-94-007-6575-7 | isbn_ebook | 978-94-007-6576-4Series ISSN 2191-5369 Series E-ISSN 2191-5377 | issn_series | 2191-5369 | copyright | Springer 2013 |
