Which risk increases when locked fault zones release?

💡 Explanation

Tsunami risk increases because sudden rupture causes rapid water displacement via Elastic Rebound. The locked potential energy releases creating seismic waves; therefore a tsunami is likelier rather than effects related directly to geological compositions.
