What is the Moho discontinuity?
The point within Earth where the earthquake starts
subsidence- when the ground subsides or settles, uplift- when the ground is pushed up
The use of 3 or more seismographs to locate the epicenter of an earthquake
Crust, Mantle, Core
Body waves, P waves arrive first and are longitudinal waves, S waves arrive second and are transverse waves
hardened magma that was underground and the surrounding rock eroded away
Imaginary boundary between crust and mantle found by seismic waves
Mudflows of volcanic debris
