Across
  1. 2. Theory for how energy gets released during an earthquake
  2. 3. type of wave that goes through the earth, can go through liquids, solids, and gasses
  3. 5. Person who studies earthquakes that had occured throughout history
  4. 10. relatively small quakes that occur before a quake
  5. 13. The underground focus point of an earthquake
  6. 14. Product of an earthquake moving along the ocean floor
  7. 15. similar to foreshocks except they happen after the earthquake
  8. 18. the middle of earth, under the outer core
  9. 19. under the mantle and part of the core as a whole
  10. 20. Predictions that use the area's history with earthquakes to predict when one will occur
  11. 21. A measurement tool that uses a weight and a writing instrument on a string
  12. 22. outermost layer of earth
  13. 24. Scale that uses observed effects to measure the strength of an earthquake
Down
  1. 1. Another type of wave to go through the earth. Only goes through solids
  2. 4. When the earth shakes so violently that it reduces the strength of the soil
  3. 6. scale used to measure the intensity of earthquakes
  4. 7. Person who studies earthquakes and their strength
  5. 8. Scale that uses total moment release to measure the strength of an earthquake
  6. 9. right under the crust
  7. 11. Waves that are trapped near the surface of the earth
  8. 12. area on the surface right above the hypocenter
  9. 16. Makes it easier to make predictions using an area's previous history with earthquakes
  10. 17. short range forecasts based on foreshocks and other various things
  11. 23. The cracks that go between two blocks of earth.
