Tsunami Warning

This documentary asks whether we can predict tsunamis, and if not, why these giant waves remain so hard to forecast. It explains how tsunamis form, how they race across oceans and why they cause such devastation, drawing on the catastrophic 2004 disaster that killed hundreds of thousands. The science is made clear and urgent. A gripping watch on natural disasters, the ocean and the effort to warn against tsunamis. Free to watch in HD on Dr Documentary.
