Tidal patterns can help predict the natural occurrence of tidal waves, commonly referred to as tsunamis. Observing tidal fluctuations allows scientists to gauge changes in sea levels and potential seismic activity that could result in a tsunami. While traditional tides are caused by the gravitational pull of the moon and sun, tsunamis typically arise from underwater earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, or landslides. Recognizing unusual tidal behavior can be a significant indicator of impending tsunamis, thereby providing an opportunity for early warning and potential evacuation measures to protect coastal communities.
