a 9.0 magnitude earthquake that destroyed Japan and surrounding states. The tsunami was formed by an earthquake underwater. Underwater earthquakes happen because of the collision of plates and it causes the fault line to slide‚ when a force pushes the water upwards that causes many tsunamis which gradually increases till they strike land or shallow water.

How tsunamis occur. As one plate subducts below another (moves underneath)‚ pressure builds for many years resulting in a section of the mega-thrust giving away. As this section gives away‚ it ruptures the ocean floor‚ resulting in a massive displacement of water‚ causing a tsunami. Tsunamis are barely felt as a ripple on the ocean’s surface‚ but as the waves reach land‚ they increase in size as the water becomes shallower.
