Search them on google.

I have but they come up with too many definitions.

Epicentre: A point on the Earth’s surface located vertically above the place deep within the Earth where the earthquake originates.

Tsunami: A tsunami (pronounced /(t)suːˈnɑːmi/) is a series of waves created when a body of water, such as an ocean, is rapidly displaced. Earthquakes, mass movements above or below water, some volcanic eruptions and other underwater explosions, landslides, underwater earthquakes, large asteroid impacts and testing with nuclear weapons at sea all have the potential to generate a tsunami. The effects of a tsunami can be devastating due to the immense volumes of water and energy involved. Since meteorites are small, they will not generate a tsunami.

Epicentre
1. The point of the earth's surface directly above the focus of an earthquake.
2. A focal point: stood at the epicenter of the international crisis.

Tsunami
A tsunami is a huge ocean wave that can travel at speeds up to 600 mi/hr (965 km/hr), hundreds of miles over open sea before it hits land. Sometimes incorrectly called a tidal wave, a tsunami is usually caused by an earthquake, volcanic eruption or coastal landslide.

Richter Scales & seismographs
Seismic waves are the vibrations from earthquakes that travel through the Earth; they are recorded on instruments called seismographs. Seismographs record a zig-zag trace that shows the varying amplitude of ground oscillations beneath the instrument. Sensitive seismographs, which greatly magnify these ground motions, can detect strong earthquakes from sources anywhere in the world. The time, locations, and magnitude of an earthquake can be determined from the data recorded by seismograph stations.

Forcus

Epicentre - The point where an earthquake or underground explosion originiated.

Tsunamis - Japanse word for tidal wave, Is caused when there is an earthquake under water, or by heavy storms.

Setsmographs -

Richter Scale - Qualifies the amount of seismic energy released by an earthquake.

Shock waves - Much like an earthquake but causes by melting ice glaciers in the atlantic.
