A Tsunami is caused by an underwater earthquake, volcanic eruption or a landslide. The earthquake forms waves that go to the shore. There is a series of waves that crashes onto the shore and causes a lot of destruction. A Tsunami can reach up to 100 feet and go at speeds up to 500 mph. A Tsunami can not be seen by sailors. Some people who watch for Tsunamis put buoys out and when a Tsunami is coming it make a loud noise and it send a signal to a satellite in space. If you want to know more go to this site.
