Earthquake Vocabularies
Across
- 3. an event in which the strength and stiffness of a soil is reduced by an earthquake's vibrations
- 4. a series of waves in a body of water caused by the displacement of a large volume of water
- 5. a value that tells the reader the amount of seismic energy released by an earthquake
- 7. a boundary where one plate is force over another during an earthquake

- 11. a boundary when plates drifted from each other
- 12. a point on the earth's surface vertically above the focus of an earthquake
Down
- 1. an event that is resulted from slope/s becoming unstable and lose the strength of holding slope materials like trees and rocks when an earthquake occur
- 2. the vibration of the earth's surface due to the movement of rocks below it
- 6. a point in the earth where earthquake rupture originates
- 8. a boundary when plates slip by each other
