The term "tsunami," which in Japanese means harbor wave, become part of the post-tsunami world languages giant Meiji on June 15, 1896 that hit Japan and caused 21,000 people lost their lives.
To understand the tsunami, it is important to be able to distinguish it from the tidal movement and ordinary waves caused by wind. Winds blowing over the sea surface cause currents limited to the upper layer of ocean waves by generating relatively small. For example, the divers with air tube can easily dive down and reach the layer of still water. Waves may reach as high as 30 meters or more during the storm terrible, but this does not cause water movement at depth. In addition, the speed of regular sea waves caused by wind is not more than 20 km / hr. In contrast, the tsunami wave can travel at the speed of 750-800 km / hr. Tidal wave moving in the earth's surface twice in the span of one day and, like the tsunami, can cause currents that reached a depth to the base of the ocean. However, unlike the tidal wave, causing a tsunami wave is not the force of gravity and the moon.
Tsunamis are long waves berperiode formed by the energy that goes into the ocean due to earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and the collapse of the layers of the Earth's crust caused by natural disasters in the ocean or on the seabed, the events involving the movement of the earth's crust as the plates shift on the seabed, or the impact of a meteor collision. When the bottom of the ocean floor on the move at high speeds, the entire load of sea water on it were affected. What happens on the ground floor of the ocean can be seen the effect on sea levels, and overall burden of sea water, to a depth of 5000-6000 meters, move together in waves. A series of hills and valleys of the wave until it can cover an area of 10,000 square kilometers.
NO TSUNAMI IMPACT ON REMOVABLE Issued
On the high seas tsunami is not a wall of water as most people imagined, but generally a wave-altitude less than 1 meter with a wavelength of about 1,000 kilometers. Here can be understood that the surface wave has a slope very small (1 cm height that stretched as far as 1 km). In the area of ocean in and out, wave like this happen without being able to be felt, although moving at a speed of 500 to 800 km / hour. This is because the effect obscured by the usual sea surface waves. To better understand how high the speed of tsunami waves, we can say that the wave is able to match the speed of a Boeing 747 jet aircraft. The tsunami that occurred on the high seas will not be felt even by ship.
TSUNAMI 100 000 TON OF WATER TO REMOVE Mainland
Research shows that the tsunami was not composed of a single wave, but rather consists of a series of waves with one center in the middle, like a stone thrown into a swimming pool. The distance between two successive waves to reach 500-650 miles. This means that the tsunami can cross the ocean in a matter of hours. Tsunami only release energy when approaching the coast. The energy is divided evenly on the giant water segulungan become more solidified as more and mengerutnya rolls the water, and rising fast surface wave height can be observed. Waves altitude of less than 60 cm in the high seas lose speed when approaching shallow waters, and the distance was reduced antargelombangnya. However, the wave of the tsunami led to overlap each other by forming a wall of water. These giant waves, which usually reaches a height of 15 meters, but rarely exceed 30 meters, off the coast of great power when crashing at high speed, causing severe damage and claimed many lives.
Tsunamis move more than 100,000 tons of sea water to the mainland for each meter of coastline, with unimaginable destructive power. (The largest tsunami wave ever known, which hit Japan in July 1993, rising to 30 meters above sea level.) Mark the beginning of a tsunami is usually not a wall of water, but the sudden decline of sea water.
BIG-TSUNAMI TSUNAMI IN HISTORY
Giant sea waves caused the largest recorded earthquake in history is as follows
The oldest giant waves never be known due to the earthquake in the sea, which was named "tsunami" by the Japanese and "hungtao" by the Chinese people, is occurring in the eastern Mediterranean on July 21, 365 AD and killed thousands of people in the city of Alexandria , Egypt.
Portugal's capital Lisbon destroyed by a massive earthquake on November 1, 1775. Atlantic ocean wave that reached a height of 6 meters devastated beaches in Portugal, Spain and Morocco.
August 27, 1883: Indonesian volcano Krakatoa erupted, and the tsunami that swept the coasts of Java and Sumatra, killing 36,000 people. Volcanic eruptions are really powerful that during many nights the sky glowing red lava due to dust.
June 15, 1896: "Sanriku Tsunami" hit Japan. Tsunamis are giant-altitude 23 meters swept the crowd of people gathered in celebration of religion and claimed 26,000 lives.
December 17, 1896: Tsunami damage to the embankment of Santa Barbara in California, United States, and caused flooding on the main highway.
January 31, 1906: Pacific Ocean earthquake destroyed part of the city of Tumaco in Colombia, including all the houses on the coast between Rioverde in Ecuador and Micay in Colombia, 1,500 people died.
1 April 1946: The tsunami that destroyed the Scotch Cap lighthouse on the Aleutian Islands along with five guards, moving to Hilo in Hawaii, killing 159 people.
May 22, 1960: altitude 11 meters Tsunami kills 1,000 in Chile and 61 in Hawaii. The giant wave crossed to the Pacific coast and shook the Philippines and the island of Okinawa in Japan.
March 28, 1964: Tsunami "Good Friday" in Alaska eliminate three villages off the map with 107 people killed, and 15 people died in Oregon and California.
August 16, 1976: A Pacific tsunami killed 5,000 people in the Moro Gulf, Philippines.
July 17, 1998: Sea waves caused by the earthquake that occurred in northern Papua New Guinea killed 2313 people, destroyed 7 villages and caused thousands of people homeless.
December 26, 2004: Earthquake measuring 8.9 on the Richter scale and giant sea waves that struck six countries in Southeast Asia killed more than 156,000 people.
Cause of high TSUNAMI DAMAGED POWER
According to information provided by Dr. Walter C. Dudley, a professor of oceanography and co-founder of the Pacific Tsunami Museum, no matter how big the earthquake strength, the movement of ocean floor is a requirement of the tsunami. In other words, the greater the movement of crustal plates on Earth's ocean floor, the greater the amount of water She moved, and this will increase the magnitude of the tsunami. Another thing that increases the destructive force of the tsunami is the structure of coastline diterjangnya: In addition to factors such as the shape of a bay or the coast of the peninsula, sloping or steep, part of the beach which is always in the water may have a structure that can increase the magnitude of the killer waves.
In another statement, which clarifies that preventive measures are carried out can not be regarded as a perfect solution, Dudley said that the United States and Japan have established the most sophisticated monitoring devices in the Pacific Ocean, but all of these devices have an error rate of fifty percent!
SIGNS OF THE END OF DAYS
Natural disasters, which can not be prevented using technological means or early countermeasures, shows how truly helpless human.
From the 20th century, which is suspected as the "century of natural disasters," until now, there have been a number of major natural disasters such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tornadoes, hurricanes, typhoons, cyclones, and floods, in addition to the tsunami, and all this has inflicted severe damage and claimed the lives of millions of people. When someone thought of this remarkable phenomenon, it is understood that this has similarities with the natural phenomenon which is expressed as a sign of the beginning of the End Times.
According to what is stated in the hadith, the Last Days is a time to come before the Day of Resurrection, and when the values of the Qur'an spread into the community. The first stage of Latter-day at a time when people are distancing themselves from religious moral values, when the war is increasing, and the extraordinary natural phenomenon occurs.
Thus, in a number of hadith, cities and nations that reportedly cut off from the sheets of history as signs of the End Times. In the hadiths dealing with the issue of our Prophet stated:
"When (the End) will not happen until ... earthquakes became frequent." (Bukhari)
"Great events will happen in his time [Imam Mahdi]." (Ibn Hajar Haytahami, Al-Qawl al-Mukhtasar fi'alamat al-Mahdi al-Muntazar, p. 27)
There are two major events before the day of Judgement ... and then years of earthquakes. (Narrated by Umm Salamah (r.a.))
"Many are so sad events will happen in his time [Imam Mahdi]." (Imam Rabbani, Letters of Rabbani, 2 / 258)
In the second stage of the Last Days, God will free mankind from the depravity of morals and warfare through the Imam Mahdi. In this period, known as the Golden Age, war and conflict will end, the world will be filled with prosperity, abundance and justice, and Islamic moral values will cover the earth and diamalkan widely. Time as this has never happened before, with the permission of Allah, but will take place before the Day of Resurrection. This phase is now awaiting the time specified by God.
Everything is under control of God. Believers who know this truth and who have sincere faith in God, surrender to our Lord with the understanding that they are following their destiny. God has arranged everything perfectly, until the smallest details, from the creation of the earth until Judgement Day. Everything is recorded in the book "Lauh Mahfuz". Everything has happened at a time in God's eyes, which is not bound by space or time, and space and time of each event are determined. This fact is stated in a verse: "For each story (which was taken by the apostles) is (time) incurred and you will know." (The Qur'an, surah Al An'am, 6:67)
