What has caused the Earthquake in Japan?
The earthquake in Japan was caused like any other earthquake, by two tectonic plates hitting and moving each other. The tsunami in Japan was caused because the earthquake happened close to the surface of the earth in the lithosphere (crust). The seismic waves (mostly the Secondary waves rather than the Primary Compression Waves) shook the water and later became a giant tidal wave, which was the tsunami in Japan.
