Seismograms

Determine how far the earthquake was from each seismic station, use the P-S time interval for a seismic station and read off the corresponding distance from the P-S time-interval graph.

Table 1. Using Seismograms to Locate an Earthquake Observations: Look at the area and read the descriptions associated with each location. Think about what each statement implies about possible earthquake hazards for that location. The blue-gray triangles represent the location of seismic stations in the area. The P-S Time Interval for the three stations (Mesaview, […]
