That&#8217;s the energy,&#8221; Sethanant said. &#8220;Imagine you have that rock like three times bigger. So, in terms of the earthquake movement magnitude, the energy of the 2011 and 2004 earthquakes in Sumatra and in Japan, it&#8217;s actually three to four times bigger. &#8230; And that&#8217;s why the tsunamis in those events were much more devastating.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>National Tsunami Warning Center  Tsunami Warning Coordinator Dave Snider said tsunamis should be thought of more as &#8220;ocean floods&#8221; than waves.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The most important thing to understand about a tsunami is this is not a surf wave, it&#8217;s not a wind wave,&#8221; Snider said. &#8220;A tsunami is the entire ocean column that is being lifted above that high tide level there because of that extreme movement of the Earth&#8217;s crust with the earthquake there, so this is a significant planetary event that we&#8217;ve just witnessed.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- data-recirc-source=\"queryly\" --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"component list recirculation component--type-recirculation \">\n<p><h3 class=\"component__title\">More from CBS News<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<\/aside>\n<p>    <!-- tags --><\/p>\n<div class=\"content-author\">\n      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/team\/haley-ott\/\" class=\"content-author__name\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Haley  Ott<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"content-author__bio\">\n<div class=\"content-author__full-information\">\n<p class=\"content-author__text\">Haley Ott is the CBS News Digital international reporter, based in the CBS News London bureau.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- ItShrt World News -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"1882483372\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/tsunami-warnings-hawaii-japan-russia-what-experts-say\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An 8.8-magnitude earthquake, one of the strongest ever recorded, struck Russia&#8217;s Far East early Wednesday, prompting tsunami warnings in coastal<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":40918,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[38],"tags":[446,760,852,6710,7837],"class_list":["post-40917","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-science","tag-hawaii","tag-japan","tag-russia","tag-tsunami","tag-tsunami-warning"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Here&#039;s what experts say about tsunami warnings in Hawaii, Japan and Russia - World News<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"&amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s not one that&amp;#039;s going to cause mass devastation.
