TONGA ERUPTION AND TSUNAMI SHOCK THE WORLD

Video of Tonga eruption and tsunami shock the world
18 May 2023

Tsunamis and shockwaves hit continents on the other side of the Pacific. The
Hunga-Tonga Hunga-Ha'apai (HT-HH) volcano was like a massive shotgun blast from
the deep, generating the biggest atmospheric explosion recorded on Earth in more
than 100 years. Funded by The Nippon Foundation, NIWA and SEA-KIT surveyed over
22,000km2 surrounding the volcano, including mapping 14,000km2 of previously
unmapped seafloor as part of The Nippon Foundation GEBCO Seabed 2030 project.
