A tsunami is formed when there is an earthquake, volcanic eruption or, more rarely, a landslide underwater. Typically, neither the earthquake, eruption or landslide are felt because they are so deep under water. However, the actions that have taken place are the first steps that lead to a massive tsunami that can cause tremendous damage to coastal regions.

Do tsunamis form at plate boundaries?
Usually, yes. Most tsunamis are generated at subduction zones. However, tsunamis can occur away from plate boundaries if they are triggered by landslides or meteor impacts.
What is needed to form a tsunami?
As usual the tsunamis are formed by earthquakes
How are tsunamis are formed?
Tsunamis can be formed after certain underwater events take place. A tsunami can form after an underwater landslide, earthquake or volcanic eruption.
Do most tsunamis probably form near plate boundaries or far from them?
Most tsunamis are tirggered by earthquaes and so usually occur at plate boundaries.
What features form at divergent boundaries?
Trenches, mountains, islands, volcanoes, earthquakes, tsunamis
Can tsunamis form in shallow water?
no.
What form divergent?
They form trenches, mountains, volcanoes, earthquakes, and tsunamis.
Do tsunamis form at plate boundaries?

What do Divergent forms?
They form trenches, mountains, volcanoes, earthquakes, and tsunamis.
Where do tsunamis typically form?
tsunamis come from a disturbance in the water like a volcanic erruption which causes the water to draw back creating a huge wave
