Earthquake Form and structure
The time has come. We will be studying the ways that earthquakes occur. The structure behind them and reading the seismograms to determine origin time and epicenter. if you want to re-watch or finish the video: Inside Planet Earth go for it. We have seen-unfortunately- the devastating impact of earthquakes and we remember the dangers of our world. While there are many radical awesome things about the inside of our planet, there is also nothing we can do to prevent events from happening.
