In September 2023, a landslide in Greenland triggered a 650-foot mega-tsunami, resulting from a melting glacier. This event caused a unique nine-day seismic vibration, detected globally. The tsunami, which filled 10,000 Olympic-sized swimming pools with debris, damaged cultural sites but caused no injuries. Scientists warn that climate change is destabilizing Arctic regions, potentially leading to more frequent and severe landslide-triggered tsunamis.
