In short, some underwater earthquakes cause tsunamis.
Earthquakes and tsunamis.
No, tsunamis do not have aftershocks. Aftershocks are typically associated with earthquakes and are smaller earthquakes that follow the main event. Tsunamis are large ocean waves usually triggered by underwater earthquakes, landslides, or volcanic eruptions.
Yes. Most tsunamis are triggered by earthquakes.
Earthquakes are one (but not the only) cause of tsunamis.
Mo, they are known as earthquakes but the earthquakes cause the tsunamis.
Earthquakes can trigger both landslides and tsunamis.
Tsunamis do not not cause earthquakes at all. Tsunamis are usually the result of an undersea earthquake.
The Christchurch earthquakes in 2010 and 2011 did not generate tsunamis because they were caused by strike-slip faults, which do not displace water vertically to create a tsunami. Tsunamis are typically generated by earthquakes associated with subduction zones or vertical displacements of the seafloor.

Of these things, earthquakes are the only ones that can cause tsunamis.
