Unit 6.5 L2 Tsunamis Dataset Visualization - OpenSciEd

In Unit 6.5 Lesson 2, students use this dataset to figure out why some earthquakes cause tsunamis and others don’t. They use the data to investigate these questions:

  • How does the magnitude (strength) of an earthquake affect tsunami formation?
  • How does the depth (how near or far from the surface) of an earthquake affect tsunami formation?
