Tsunami Research (4pts)
While tsunamis are fairly common occurrences along the Pacific Ocean’s Ring of Fire, they are less common in the Atlantic Ocean. Why? Using Figure 4.33 and Figure 5.30, identify an area in the Atlantic Ocean region that can produce tsunamis. Be sure to identify the specific tectonic plates and the type of tectonic plate boundary that separates them. When was the last major earthquake to occur within this region and what was its magnitude?
