INSUFFICIENT LEANING

Is it true that El Nino weather events cause tsunamis in the Pacific Ocean?
Unclear. The retrieved sources describe El Nino as affecting weather, jet streams, rainfall and tropical cyclones, and one reference attributes Pacific tsunamis to underwater earthquakes rather than El Nino. No source directly examines whether El Nino events cause tsunamis, so the evidence only partially bears on the claim.
