Tsunami Propagation

Tsunami Propagation is a physical oceanographic process characterized by the transmission of large-amplitude gravity waves across ocean basins following a significant displacement of water, primarily due to seismic events, that distinguishes it from ordinary wind-driven waves by its wavelength, speed, and energy conservation over long distances.
