Can people cause tsunamis?
This is hard to answer because of the definition of tsunami. Certainly people are not able to create tsunamis like the one that struck Japan recently. However some tsunamis are small and of little note. Since tsunamis can be caused by underwater faults, small faults and thus small water pulses can be caused by the pumping of oil from under the sea. Also, the hydrogen bomb test at Bikini Atoll caused a tsunami like wave. I'm not sure whether is was considered an official tsunami, but some definitions say tsunamis are generated by any large, impulsive displacement of the sea level. The hydrogen bomb certainly caused a large, impulsive displacement of the sea level so by this definition it caused a tsunami.
