What’s a Wave?
Waves travel in both space and time

Basic Wave Properties
time
amplitude period(T)
frequency (f) = 1/T
Distance
amplitude wavelength(λ)
Wave Velocity (V) = λ/T = f λ
![Page 16: Oct. 8, 2005 Pakistan earthquake, as recorded at Idaho ...geode.colorado.edu/~geolsci/courses/GEOL4130/4130-S06-lecture1.pdf · Oct. 8, 2005 Pakistan earthquake, as recorded at Idaho](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042101/5e7e29c041c4626d3744cf4b/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Basic Wave Relationλ = VTorV = f λ
relates frequency (or period) to wavelength
long wavelength = long period (or low frequency)short wavelength = short period (or high frequency)

Low-frequency signal
High-frequency signal
T = 5 sec V = 8 km/s

Example:
60 s
Distance = 500 km
in crust, P wave travels for (500 km)/(6.4 km/s) = 78 sec
S wave travels(500 km)/(3.6 km/s) = 139 sec
These numbers can vary several percent

Distance/(P velocity)• S wave arrival time = origin time +
Distance/(S velocity)• S wave arrival time - P wave arrival time =
Distance/(S velocity) - Distance/(P velocity)• From above equation calculate distance• Get distance to 3 stations and triangulate
