17.1.22<\/p>

Dr. Beverly Goodman-Tchernov <\/a>(Head, Strauss Department of Marine Geosciences<\/a> and a National Geographic Explorer) was interviewed by Haaretz<\/em> following the recent underwater volcano eruption in the South Pacific that caused tsunamis to hit Hawaii, Japan and Tonga. She explained that tsunamis can be triggered by a variety of natural and human activities \u2013 volcanoes, mud slides, meteorites, or bombs. \u201cThe reality is that anything that causes significant-enough water displacement can result in a tsunami.” Goodman-Tchernov added that a “monster” wave is believed to have hit Dor on the Israeli coast about 4,500 years ago. And, while there is no way to predict the next tsunami in Israel or around the world, “as sea levels rise, more and more (coastal) communities are at risk.”\u00a0<\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
