Cause
Tsunami may be formed by movement of seafloor due to earthquake or explosive underwater volcanic eruption.
Seismic energy forces out a mass of the water. On reaching shallow water, greater friction slows the waves and forces them to increase in height.
Upon reaching the coast the waves traveling very fast, and may reach a height of 15m.
