Actually, tsunamis are caused by earthquakes, underwater explosions, and volcanic eruptions.
The Earthquake occurred before the tsunami as it is what caused the tsunami.
Yes, there were reports of a small tsunami hitting the coast of Haiti after the 2010 earthquake. However, the damage caused by the tsunami was minimal compared to the devastation from the earthquake.
No, the San Francisco earthquake of 1906 did not cause a tsunami.
Earthquake itself is not dangerous if you know how to response. as long as you are on the right place, for example on an open place or inside seismic resistant buildings, etc you will be fine. Many people killed during earthquake because of panic and do wrong thing. tsunami triggered by underwater earthquake and off course more more more dangerous than earthquake. for example if there is no tsunami in sendai, miyagi, iwate area (march 11, 2011) the people killed will be not so significant. tsunami is the most dangerous natural disaster in the world.
The Tsunami (and most Tsunamis) are caused by earthquakes that take place deep under the seabed. The greater the severity of the earthquake, the larger, and more devastating, a Tsunami will be.
Yes, the 9.0 magnitude earthquake caused the tsunami.
No, the earthquake in the ocean cause the water to make the tsunami

because of the earthquake
The earthquake that caused the tsunami was on the same day, 29 September, 2009.
The Earthquake occurred before the tsunami as it is what caused the tsunami.
Bear in mind that it is not just the Richter scale measurement which determines the severity of a tsunami which results from an earthquake; the location of the earthquake is also relevant. And inland earthquake does not produce the same tsunami as an underwater earthquake. That said, 8.3 is an extremely powerful earthquake which could produce a tsunami that would travel for thousands of miles and cause immense dammage over a very wide area.
No. A tsunami is a giant ocean wave. A tsunami can be caused by an earthquake, but they are completely different things.
Yes it is possible. The 7.5 magnitude earthquake caused a large tsunami.
An earthquake happened, which triggered the tsunami.
There was a tsunami, but it was triggered by a volcanic eruption, not an earthquake.
Yes, there were reports of a small tsunami hitting the coast of Haiti after the 2010 earthquake. However, the damage caused by the tsunami was minimal compared to the devastation from the earthquake.
