The preliminary data get from the Scopus database considering that the Scopus indexed documents have gone through a rigorous review process and have credibility in publishing research results. 119 documents (years 1972-2021) get from Scopus databased obtained based on the keyword Tsunami Mechanism. The VOSViewer application visualizes the research results related to the tsunami mechanism. Of all the papers, there are 80 of 119 documents in the form of articles on Tsunami Mechanisms from 1972 to 2021. Then, the scientist who studied the most tsunamis was Pararas-Carayannis, G., with seven documents. The author is in the first position of all written documents published in International Journals indexed by Scopus. The cities most affected by the tsunami were Japan. The affiliate most associated with tsunamis is The University of Tokyo in Japan. Earth and Planetary Sciences is the subject area in the first position with 77 documents. The keyword that appears the most is "tsunami" in 59 documents. The journal "Pure and Applied Geophysics" was the primary source. The implication of this research is to provide empirical evidence that research related to tsunami is still an exciting topic at present and in the future. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
