Exact excerpt

Our observations highlight the capacity for submarine caldera collapse to generate exceptional tsunami magnitude, even in relatively small volcanic systems... The eruption triggered the largest and highest tsunami ever recorded from an underwater volcanic eruption... with tsunamic waves heights reaching ~40 m at distances up to 100 km from the source... [and] powerful volcaniclastic density currents.
