Answer:

Earthquake under the sea level causes the waves to be larger near the shore.

Explanation:

Steeper shorelines produce higher tsunami waves. ... As the tsunami hits shallower water, the velocity slows, wavelength decreases and the waves height (amplitude) increases. Tsunami waves can grow up to 30 meters in height as they hit the shoreline and are followed by more waves that may even be more dangerous.
