On August 10, 2025, at 5:26 AM local time, a significant landslide occurred at Tracy Arm fjord in Alaska, where a 63.5 million cubic meter rock mass fell into the water, generating a tsunami that reached a remarkable height of 481 meters. This event was recorded as the second highest tsunami in history, with the initial wave reaching 100 meters and traveling at speeds over 70 meters per second. Fortunately, the tsunami struck early in the morning, resulting in no injuries or fatalities. Researchers, including Aram Fathian from the University of Calgary, highlighted the dangers of landslide-generated tsunamis, which can be more violent than those caused by earthquakes. The structural integrity of the cliffs was compromised by the retreat of the South Sawyer Glacier, a phenomenon linked to climate change. Since 1925, there have been 27 documented landslide tsunamis with runup heights exceeding 50 meters, underscoring the potential risks of such natural disasters.
