Tsunamis affecting New Zealand

Tsunamis affecting New Zealand are mainly due to the country being part of the geologically active Pacific Plate and associated with the Pacific Ring of Fire. Tsunamis affect New Zealand's coastline reasonably frequently and tend to be caused by earthquakes on the Pacific Plate both locally and as far away as South America, Japan, and Alaska. Some have been attributed to undersea landslides, volcanoes, and at least one meteor strike. New Zealand is affected by at least one tsunami with the a wave height greater than one metre every ten years on average.〔(Willem de Lange and Eileen McSaveney. 'Tsunamis - Tsunamis – New Zealand’s underrated hazard' ), Te Ara - the Encyclopedia of New Zealand, updated 13-Jul-12〕 The history of tsunamis is limited by the country's written history only dating from the early to mid 1800s with Māori oral traditions and paleotsunami research prior to that time.
==Frequency==
The predicted tsunami return periods for New Zealand based on all available data from 1840 are: 1 metre every 7.7 years, 2.5 metres every 10.6 years, 5 metres every 18.1 years, and 10 metres every 52.5 years.〔Table, Tsunami Hazard in New Zealand, Willem de Lange and Rodger Fraser, Tephra, Ministry for Emergency Management, October 1999, page 4〕
