@oldrawgabbit There's a book by Prof Bill McGuire called Waking the Giant: How a changing #climate triggers #tsunamis, #earthquakes and #volcanoes
It is high time we no longer call them 'Natural Disasters' but human-caused catastrophes

The Gulf of Mexico is merely a synonym for this effect - THIS CAN also happen to us in the Mediterranean.
The strong winds whip up the water, which in turn affects the seabed ... I can't say what THAT means for some #geologically sensitive areas ( Santorini & Columbus submarine🌋 immediately come to mind, as do the tectonic plates )
#Earthquakes and active #volcanoes along subduction zones can also trigger #tsunamis in the #Mediterranean region.

#tsunamis en el Mar #Caribe son muy raros. los que han azotado al área oeste fueron consecuencias de temblores en el Atlántico. tiene que ser un terremoto bastante impactante para que pongan el alerta.
este #maremoto si le da a #PuertRico, puede que sea por el sureste; así que ojo desde #Vieques y #Culebra hasta el área de #Ponce.

#MangroveForests are healing after decades of human destruction
by Matt McGrath and Esme Stallard
June 4, 2026"The world's coastal #mangrove forests, which protect millions of people from storms - and soak up vast amounts of planet-warming gases - are staging an unexpected comeback, scientists find.
"For decades these swampy trees had been declining rapidly as they were cleared for fish farms and housing.
"But a new study shows that since 2010 the world has been gaining more mangroves than it has been losing - driven by stronger #LegalProtections and increased #PublicAwareness of their importance, sparked by disasters such as the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami.
"The researchers say the key factor though is the remarkable capacity of these forests to #regenerate naturally once humans stop chopping them down.
"Mangroves are one of the world's unsung #environmental heroes.
"Not only do they store up to five times more #CarbonDioxide than land-based forests, but their tangled roots can also slow down waves and protect coastal communities from #StormSurges and #tsunamis.
"These same roots provide a perfect nursery for many species of fish and other #MarineLife - protecting them from predators and providing ample food.
"These benefits, though, have come under serious threat over the past century as the rise of fish farming, agriculture and the expansion of coastal cities and towns have seen mangroves chopped down and rapidly removed.
"From the 1980s to 2010, over 12,000 sq km (4,600 sq miles) of mangroves were cleared or destroyed across #Asia, #Africa and the #Americas - an area the size of Jamaica.
"However, the new study shows a real reversal of that trend, particularly over the last decade. The total net losses - the forest lost and not replaced - since the 1980s have now been reduced to around 849 sq km (328 sq miles)."
