Why do we study ocean waves

We study waves so we can better predict when a hurricane or tsunami hits. If we can predict when a hurricane is going to hit there could be a lot of people saved. There would be less deaths. They could give a warning for a tsunami sooner. Which would then allow people to evacuate their houses earlier. Also there would be less damage caused by the hurricane or tsunami.
