Across
  1. 3. a seismic body wave that shakes the ground back and forth in the same direction and the opposite direction as the direction the wave is moving.
  2. 5. a fault on which the movement is along both the strike and the dip of the fault.
  3. 9. waves that cause the ground to shake in an elliptical pattern.
  4. 11. a seismic wave that moves through the interior of the earth.
  5. 12. a seismic body wave that shakes the ground back and forth perpendicular to the direction the wave is moving.
  6. 13. a seismic wave that is trapped near the surface of the earth.
  7. 14. the shaking of the earth.
Down
  1. 1. a surface wave having a horizontal motion that is transverse to the direction the wave is traveling.
  2. 2. inclined fractures where the blocks have mostly shifted vertically.
  3. 4. a seismic body wave in which rock particles vibrate at right angles to the direction of wave travel.
  4. 6. a pulse of energy that travels quickly through the earth and through liquids.
  5. 7. vertical fractures where the blocks have mostly moved horizontally.
  6. 8. the part of the earth's surface directly above the focus of an earthquake.
  7. 10. it records the details of earthquakes.
  8. 15. the point within the earth where an earthquake rupture starts.
