Water displacement due to physical land movement causing an underwater wave in a ripple effect. A underwater wave is different from a regular wind driven surface wave in effect because when the underwater wave reach shallow waters it is forced up by forward motion causing a tsunami.

What physical processes causes a Tsunamis?
usually and underwater volcano.
What do underwater volcanic eruptions cause?
Underwater eruptions cause tsunamis and cause lava to form and underwater ridge.
What are 3 underwater names that can cause tsunamis?
Underwater landslides, Underwater volcanic eruptions, and Underwater earthquakes
What are earthquakes tsunamis and volcano caused by?
They are all caused by the Earths The Earths Tectonic PLates. e.g When there is a crack or fracture in a tectonic plate the pressure slowley builds up until it if released. This can cause tsunamis if the plate is underwater or an earthquake if it is not.
What are underwater mountains caused by volcanoes?
An underwater volcano can cause pillow basalts and rare tsunamis. Underwater volcanoes are formed by hot spots in the Earth's mantle.

usually and underwater volcano.
What do underwater volcanic eruptions cause?
Underwater eruptions cause tsunamis and cause lava to form and underwater ridge.
What are 3 underwater names that can cause tsunamis?
Underwater landslides, Underwater volcanic eruptions, and Underwater earthquakes
Why are tsunamis associated with earthquakes?
Well, earthquakes do cause tsunamis. But only underwater earthquakes. Plus, they have to be a transform plate boundary earthquake(caused by subduction).Any displacement of water will cause a tsunami. In short, some underwater earthquakes cause tsunamis.
Who is responsible when there is a Tsunami?
An earthquake is responsible 'cause underwater earthquakes cause tsunamis.
Does underwater volcanoes cause tsunamis and later become islands?
no

How are volcanoes earthquakes and tsunamis related?
A volcanic eruption can cause an earthquake and an earthquake underwater can cause a tsunami.
What are 2 ways tsusmasis are formed?
Tsunamis occur when the water in the ocean is displaced. There are several ways they can be formed. One is by underwater earthquakes, another is by underwater landslides, and a third way is by underwater volcano eruptions.
Can earthquakes happen underwater?
Of course! In fact, underwater earthquakes are a major cause of tsunamis.
How do sunamis work?
its spelled tsunamis, and they are commonly caused by underwater earthquakes that cause massive waves.
