When the Sea Becomes a Monster: The Terrifying Power of Tsunamis

"A monster just stood up from the channels and jumped." These haunting words from Salaevalu Ulberg of Samoa capture what makes tsunamis so terrifying - they transform the familiar sea into something monstrous and unrecognizable. Unlike hurricanes or earthquakes that we've learned to measure and track, tsunamis remain particularly frightening because they're so rare that few people ever experience one firsthand. Yet when they strike, they reshape coastlines, destroy communities, and permanently alter the course of human history. As climate change threatens to increase extreme weather events that can trigger tsunamis, understanding these devastating waves has never been more crucial.
