The causes of a tsunami

This educational resource explores the causes of tsunamis, focusing on subduction zones and the interaction of tectonic plates. It explains how destructive plate boundaries lead to seismic activity, resulting in earthquakes and volcanic eruptions that can trigger tsunamis. By using diagrams and labeling key components, learners will gain an understanding of plate tectonics, the types of plates involved, and the geological processes that culminate in these natural disasters. Engage with the material to visualize and comprehend the dynamics of Earth systems.
