When talking about the tsunami, then we would have to start from the cause, namely the earthquake in the ocean. Tsunami always preceded a powerful movement that we commonly call the earthquake. Although it is known that there are various types of this earthquake, but 90% of the tsunami caused by the movement of the plates in the earth that happened to be located in areas of the oceans. It should be also mentioned, the history of tsunamis ever recorded due to the eruption of Krakatoa.

If we look at the tsunami, of course we understand that there is no human intervention in it. Thus, we do not have control to prevent these causes. However, the preparation and maximum vigilance, we can minimize the impact of the tsunami itself. A good example has been shown in Japan. Although prone to tsunamis, but the awareness of people able to reduce the number of victims of the disaster.

The tsunami waves propagate at speeds unimaginable. He could reach 500 to 1000 kilometers per hour at sea. And when it reaches the shore, the speed is reduced to 50 to 30 kilometers per hour. Although reduced rapidly, but the pace was able to cause severe damage to humans.
