No. Tsunamis are classified as huge tidal waves. Tsunamis cause floods when the waves hit the shore and the water rushes inland.

No. Tsunamis are a consequence of underwater earthquakes or landslides. Tornadoes can occasionally cause wave-like surges on small lakes, but they are more akin to storm surges than tsunamis.

Will cutting trees cause tsunamis?

No, it would not. However, cutting trees causes global warming. Global warming causes the polar ice caps to melt. When the ice caps melt, the sea level would rise. If the sea level rises, floods would occur. However, floods are not tsunamis, but tsunami causes floods. Therefore, we can conclude that cutting of trees will cause floods, which are about the same effects of a tsunami.
