Why Earthquake Durations Are Not Published: Understanding Variations in Perception and Energy Propagation

2023-10-04 14:31:15 12:32 WHY IS THE DURATION OF EARTHQUAKES NOT PUBLISHED? Earthquakes have a duration of energy propagation in the seismic source, or hypocenter. However, once the waves leave the source, having different speeds, they distance themselves from each other. For this reason, the perception of the duration of an earthquake will vary from one … Read more

Distinguishing between Epicenter and Hypocenter: Earthquake Origins Unveiled

2023-08-04 21:41:50 14:54 WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE EPICENTER AND HYPOCENTER OF AN EARTHQUAKE? The hypocenter is the point inside the Earth where the rupture that generates an earthquake begins (latitude, longitude, depth). If this point is projected to the Earth’s surface, the epicenter is obtained, that is, the epicenter corresponds to the point … Read more
