What is an earthquake? Earthquakes: The Basics
Scientific answer:
When the ground breaks along a fault
Common/laymen’s answer:
When the ground shakes where I am
Both answers are correct! Two different aspects of a seismic event
Seismic waves
Seismic source

Seismic sources: Where do earthquake occur? How often do earthquakes happen? Why earthquakes happen? How do earthquakes happen? Prediction, Forecast, Early Warning
Earthquakes: The Basics
Seismic waves: Seismic Monitoring X-Raying the Earth – Structure of the Earth’s interior Looking for mineral resources, oil and gas Response of buildings and structures Earthquake Engineering
All those topics will be touched on
in this course

Where do earthquakes occur? Summary:
Earthquakes occur in a distinct pattern
Pattern is similar for EQ and Volcanoes
EQ occur along major ocean features like ridges and trenches
EQ occur under some major mountain ranges, like Himalaya, Alps and Andes

Plate Tectonics Why are Wegener’s ideas important?
At the last turn of the century, nobody really understood what EQ were and how they worked
Japan: catfish
China: frog
Philippines: snake
Native Americans: turtle
In folklore EQ were associated
with giant creatures that supported the Earth

Aristotle (384-322 BCE)
Strong winds blew through caves inside the Earth, creating “effects similar to those of the wind in our bodies whose force when it is pent up inside us can cause tremors and throbbings.”

Today we have
14 major plates:
North American
Eurasian
Pacific
Antarctic
South American
African
Australian
Plate Tectonics
The plates are rigid.
They are moving,
hence they collide

Categories of plate – plate interactions
Divergent
• Established mid-ocean ridge • New rift zone, new ocean
Transform • Along mid-ocean ridges • Across continents
Convergent • Ocean – continent • Ocean – ocean • Continent – continent
Plate Tectonics The tectonic action is
along the plate boundaries
Let’s look at them in more detail:
