Tsunami Crushes Coastline (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781538213155)

The Fukushima nuclear power plant was seriously damaged by a tsunami in 2011. Today, environmental problems continue, showing just how far-reaching damage from the massive waves of a tsunami can be. Other headline-grabbing tsunamis are profiled in this volume, providing readers with true-life examples as they learn about what causes tsunamis, where they are likely to hit, and how areas prepare for them throughout the main content. Full-color photographs of tsunami-caused devastation accompany the STEM content, boxes of real disaster statistics, and quotes from those who lived through a tsunami.
