Tsunami impact assessment

Tsunami impact assessment involves evaluating the potential effects of a tsunami on coastal areas by analyzing factors like wave size, speed, arrival times, and the vulnerability of communities and infrastructure. This process helps identify which regions are most at risk, estimate possible damages, and plan effective evacuation and response strategies. It combines scientific data, historical records, and geographic information to provide a comprehensive understanding of potential impacts, enabling authorities to minimize loss of life, property damage, and environmental harm through informed preparedness and mitigation efforts.
