A mechanism for tsunami generation
Journal of Hydraulic Research, 1993Most tsunamis have previously been believed to be generated by relatively large-scale vertical movements of the sea bed beneath an incompressible sea. This paper considers the possibility that fluid compressibility might be responsible for amplifying seismic waves sufficiently to generate tsunami waves in the open sea.

Characteristics of Leading Tsunami Waves Generated in Three Recent Tsunami Events
Journal of Earthquake and Tsunami, 2014In this paper, the time series of ocean water surface elevation, recorded by Deep-ocean Assessment and Recording of Tsunamis (DART) sensors in the Pacific Ocean, during three recent tsunami events — 2010 Chile tsunami, 2011 Tohoku tsunami, and 2012 Haida Gwaii tsunami — are analyzed.

Landslide-generated Tsunamis: Geotechnical Considerations
Pure and Applied Geophysics, 2003Landslide-induced tsunamis are particularly dangerous because the warning time is very short in the coastal area. Therefore it is critical to identify the potential for coastal landslides involving large masses of material. Almost invariably such large landslides will occur in material susceptible to liquefaction, particularly during earthquakes.

Tsunamis Generated by Submarine Landslides
2011Submarine landslides can generate tsunamis and cause coastal hazard. Because the horizontal scale of submarine landslide is comparable to water depth and much smaller than the scale of earthquake fault area, the tsunami characteristics is very different from earthquake-generated tsunami which is usually approximated as a shallow-water wave.
