The SAF is unlikely to produce tsunamis. This is because it is mostly on land and because it is a transform fault, the motion between plates being largely horizontal. Tsunami's are produced by vertical motions at an underwater fault and these are almost always associated with subduction zones.

Read More »A tsunami is a series of long wavelength water waves caused by a sudden vertical displacement of the ocean's surface. When the waves reach the shore, they rear up and break, and can be many feet high. Tsunamis can reach far inland. Most are caused by underwater earthquakes at or near subduction zones. Rare but much larger tsunamis can be produced by landslides into the ocean or underwater landslides. Any impulsive event that produces a localized surface displacement of an ocean or large lake can produce tsunamis, such as underwater volcanic eruptions, asteroid impacts and nuclear explosions. Tsunamis have wavelengths that are hundreds of miles long, much larger than the depth of the ocean. As a result, they move at the shallow water wave velocity, which is hundreds of miles per hour and is determined by the depth of the ocean. In the open ocean away from the source, they are only a few feet high and are undetectable except to sensitive sea floor instruments. When they reach shore, they slow down, grow in heigh and break like surf, overrunning low lying areas. At the shore, tsunamis can be small and undetectable or hundreds of meters high. The Indian Ocean tsunami of 26 Dec 2004 was produced by an earthquake along a subduction zone where the Burma plate overides the Indian plate. The 2011 Yohoku earthquake caused a devastating tsunami where the Pacific Plate is subducting under the Eurasian plate near Japan. The SAF is unlikely to produce tsunamis. This is because it is mostly on land and because it is a transform fault, the motion between plates being largely horizontal. Tsunami's are produced by vertical motions at an underwater fault and these are almost always associated with subduction zones. However, earthquakes in the Mendocino Fracture Zone and the Cascadia Subduction Zone have produced damaging tsunamis in California and Oregon. California is also vulnerable to tsunamis caused in the Pacific ocean. Many of the edges of the Pacific plate terminate in subduction zones. Alaska is a source of tsunamis, as are the west coast of Mexico, central and south America and Japan. In California, only a few low lying coastal regions are in danger from tsunamis. But of course, the larger the tsunami, the farther inland it will reach.

Types of earthquakes There are many different types of earthquakes: tectonic, volcanic, and explosion. The type of earthquake depends on the region where it occurs and the geological make-up of that region. The most common are tectonic earthquakes . These occur when rocks in the earth's crust break due to geological forces created by movement of tectonic plates. Another type, volcanic earthquakes, occur in conjunction with volcanic activity. Collapse earthquakes are small earthquakes in underground caverns and mines, and explosion earthquakes result from the explosion of nuclear and chemical devices. We can measure motion from large tectonic earthquakes using GPS because rocks on either side of a fault are offset during this type of earthquake. What are earthquakes?
