Across
  1. 1. a line which may be visible or not that occurs on Earth's surface
  2. 3. the point on Earth's surface directly above focus
  3. 4. geological faults where the earthquake originates
  4. 6. a fault in which the hanging wall moves down
  5. 8. first part is the area where the fault occured
  6. 11. a large wave that moves up and down
  7. 15. refers to the forces and events that lead to a large structural deformation
  8. 16. a fault in which two blocks of the crust slide past each other on the same place
  9. 17. a molten rock
  10. 19. are classified into two: surface waves and body waves
  11. 24. can detect the existence of a fault by studying the distances between rocks
  12. 26. also called ground rolls
  13. 30. a natural phenomena that is a sudden, violent shifting of massive plates underneath the Earth's surface
Down
  1. 2. an Irish civil engineer and scientist who studied the earthquake's motion
  2. 5. a mountain that opens downward to a reservoir
  3. 7. considered as the longest mountain chain
  4. 9. traverses to the direction of the propagation but with no vertical motion
  5. 10. located with either in the PRoF or the Alpide Belt
  6. 12. refers to the blocks of crust above the fault
  7. 13. Japanese word for tidal wave or big wave
  8. 14. the process and phenomenon associated with the surficial discharge of molten rocks and other materials
  9. 16. travels approximately 2.5-4km per second and can only travel through solid materials
  10. 18. travels fastest at the speed from 4km to 8km per second
  11. 20. a crack across which the rocks have offset first
  12. 21. propagation of elastic waves through Earth and other planet-like bodies
  13. 22. He introduced the Richter Scale back in 1934
  14. 23. is the block of crust below the fault
  15. 25. are areas where heat or rocks in the mantle are rising towards the Earth's surface
  16. 27. are locations on Earth's surface that has experienced active volcano activties
  17. 28. also called thrust fault
  18. 29. occurs when matter such as magma circulates
