tsunamis

I will expect you to be able to draw/label this and understand how the tsunami wave changes (in height, speed and wavelength) as it moves from the ocean to the shore. Be sure to understand how the wave is generated (you should have a picture that we drew together in class)

Earthquakes faults Earthquakes occur when rock masses in the Earth’s crust move suddenly along ruptures called faults. The rock movement may occur vertically,
