On December 26, 2004, an undersea earthquake off the coast of Sumatra triggered a series of tsunamis that claimed more than 250,000 lives and devastated communities in Thailand, Sri Lanka, and India. Scientists present an in-depth exploration of what made the waves so destructive and assess the risks of future catastrophes.
