- 34. Multiple Choice
Based on the data in Graph 1, which factors in the process of tsunami formation are most predictable?
Choose the three correct answers.
timing of when an earthquake will occur
changes in the tsunami wave amplitude
timing of when a tsunami wave reaches the shoreline
intensity of the earthquake causing the tsunami
length of time tsunami waves are present after an earthquake
- 35. Multiple Choice
Part A

Sensor P
Sensor Q
Sensor R
Sensor S
- 36. Multiple Choice
Part B
Which statements describe evidence from the stimulus that best supports the answer to Part A?
Choose all that apply.
Detectors closest to the coastline and detecting the largest waves will provide the earliest warning.
Detectors closest to the underwater energy event will provide the earliest warning.
Detectors closest to the entrance of the Gulf of Mexico and detecting changes in water levels will provide the earliest warning.
Detectors closest to the initial waves formed by an underwater event will provide the earliest warning.
Detectors closest to the waves with the shortest wavelengths will provide the earliest warning.
- 37. Multiple Choice
Based on the information in Map 1 and Figure 1, which statement best describes why the flow of water out of the Mississippi River should be monitored over time to predict tsunamis in the Gulf of Mexico?
Changes in the water temperature at the outlet of the Mississippi River could trigger a tsunami once water enters the Gulf of Mexico.
Sediment in the Mississippi River water could build up near the Mississippi Canyon ledge and trigger a landslide that causes a tsunami.
A reduction in the quality of the Mississippi River water could trigger an earthquake that causes a tsunami.
Large amounts of water flowing out of the Mississippi River could trigger a tsunami once water enters the Gulf of Mexico.
- 38. Multiple Choice
Part A
Based on the information in Figure 1, which statement best describes the differences in wave height and wavelength between tsunami waves in shallow water and tsunami waves in deep water?
Tsunami waves in deep water have very large wave heights and long wavelengths, while tsunami waves in shallow water have very large wave heights and short wavelengths.
Tsunami waves in deep water have very small wave heights and short wavelengths, while tsunami waves in shallow water have very large wave heights and long wavelengths.
Tsunami waves in deep water have very small wave heights and long wavelengths, while tsunami waves in shallow water have very large wave heights and short wavelengths.
Tsunami waves in deep water have very large wave heights and short wavelengths, while tsunami waves in shallow water have very small wave heights and long wavelengths.
- 39. Multiple Choice
Part B
Which statements best explain the causes of the differences selected in Part A?
Choose all that apply.
In deep water, there is a larger volume of water, resulting in waves with larger heights.
In shallow water, the rising seafloor drags on the bottom of the wave, resulting in a decreasing wavelength.
In deep water, there is more space for the energy of the wave to spread out under the water.
In shallow water, there is a smaller volume of water, resulting in waves with longer wavelengths.
In shallow water, there is less space for the energy of the wave under the water, so the height of the wave increases.
- 40. Open Ended
Part A
Use evidence from Graph 1 to describe the effectiveness of the forecast models used to predict tsunamis, and explain two ways in which the forecast models were less accurate in modeling the actual tsunami data.
