Do Earthquakes Always Occur on Faults?: Transcript


The Great California ShakeOut NO Caused by sudden release of energy Tectonic earthquakes are focused on a fault Induced seismicity Volcanism The Great California ShakeOut Earthquakes caused by the movement of magma through the earths crust. Move it, move it !!. What are they?. Fault: a break or fracture in the crust of Earth.. Earthquakes: shaking or trembling of the earth caused by movement along a fault.. Uplift: upward movement of Earth’s crust.. Regional Strain. Types of Fault and the Principal Stresses. Fault Rocks. Gouge: non-cohesive, fine grained. Breccia: coarse angular fragments. Cataclasite: cohesive fragments. Fault Melt (pseudotachylite):. Layali Rashid. Errors that occur in bursts, at the same location, when the fault is activated . [WDSN07]. .. Faults which occur frequently and irregularly for a period of time . [ASPLOS08]. .. A persistent defect that causes zero or more failures, such as a speck of conductive dust partially bridging two traces . Lecture 29. Gly. 326. Compression and deformation. In areas of compression, we have several options for deformation. Dependent on lithology, rock strength, confinement, fluid occurrence, etc.. Reverse/Thrust faults. Chapter 2 Section 3. Objectives. F.2.3.1. Explain how a seismograph works.. F.2.3.2. Describe how Geologists monitor faults.. F.2.3.3. . Explain how . seismograph data is used.. The Seismograph. Seismic waves cause the seismographs drum to vibrate but the suspended weight with the pen attached moves very little. Therefore the pen remains still and records the vibrations on the drum.. Lemuel Jhon S. Libres. Janice Putian. Sta. Fe Lopez. If your pocket gets empty your faults will be many.. FAULT. FAULT. FAULT. FAULT. FAULT. A fracture along which there has been displacement of the sides relative to one another.. EARTHQUAKES AND FAULTS. Why do earthquakes occur? . What is the relationship between earthquakes and faults? . A shallow MAGNITUDE 7.2 earthquake struck Central . Visayas. Tuesday, October 15. The quake struck at 8:12 am, with EPICENTER 2 kilometers southeast of Carmen, Bohol. The quake's depth of FOCUS was 33 kilometers. According to scientists, the earthquake was caused by movement along the North Bohol Fault. . ITET G. . MAGGIOLINI . & . “The green . school. network. ” . present. . What. . is. an . earthquake. ?. An earthquake (also known as a quake, . tremor) . is the . shaking of the surface. of the Earth, resulting from the sudden release of energy in the Earth's lithosphere that creates seismic waves. . Move it, move it !!. What are they?. Fault: a break or fracture in the crust of Earth.. Earthquakes: shaking or trembling of the earth caused by movement along a fault.. Uplift: upward movement of Earth’s crust.. Move it, move it !!. What are they?. Fault: a break or fracture in the crust of Earth.. Earthquakes: shaking or trembling of the earth caused by movement along a fault.. Uplift: upward movement of Earth’s crust.. . What Is an Earthquake?. An . earthquake. is the vibration of Earth produced by the rapid release of energy. Energy released radiates in all directions from its source, the . focus. . Energy is in the form of waves. This topic will shake you up. Stress. Stress-. a force (energy) that acts on rock to change its shape or volume. Types of Stress. Tension-. pulls or stretches rock so that it becomes thinner in the middle. This happens at divergent plate boundaries.. An . earthquake. is a sudden motion or trembling of the Earth caused by the abrupt release of energy that is stored in rocks. . Modern . geologists know that most earthquakes occur along plate boundaries, where huge tectonic plates separate, converge, or slip past one another. During: Fault notes. After: Exit slip 4 questions. Day 1: Faults. Fault-. a breaks . in the earth’s surface along which rocks can . move.. Three . kinds of faults – determined by how the rocks move against each .
