Abstract: Based on the study and statistics on earthquakes,we know that most of the earthquakes don't induce tsunami,so there is no direct causality between earthquake and tsunami.The earthquake-generated tsunami(especially the big earthquake-generated tsunami)is mainly induced by the secondary and huge volumetric submarine landslide and collapse caused by ocean-bottom earthquake,rather than the submarine coseismic dislocation and deformation.If there exist unstable submarine landslide and collapse bodies nearby the epicenter,earthquake,regardless of the size,the focal depth,or the source type(namely,dip-slip or strike-slip)of it,will induce submarine landslide and collapse,and then generate tsunami.Otherwise,it will not generate tsunami even with big magnitude or dip-slip.

Key words: earthquake, tsunami, landslide, collapse
