Cover Story: This study revolutionizes tsunami occurrence forecasting by leveraging machine learning, specifically Random Forest and Logistic Regression models, trained on seismic data from 1995 to 2023. Achieving 90% accuracy, the research integrates diverse datasets—seismic, geospatial, and environmental—to predict tsunami-generating earthquakes with improved lead times. Exploratory data analysis reveals high-risk regions, offering insights for enhanced disaster preparedness. Future applications include real-time warning systems and resilient infrastructure planning, promising to mitigate the global impact of tsunamis. View this paper
