What are the manmade causes of tsunami?

Manmade causes of tsunamis can include underwater explosions, such as those caused by nuclear tests or volcanic eruptions, or underwater landslides triggered by activities like mining or construction. However, most tsunamis are caused by natural events like earthquakes or volcanic eruptions.


Why are some volcanic eruptions very destructive while others are not?
