However the number of days between apogee and perigee moons varies less predictably Apogee moons occur at an average of 27554 days apart with a range of 26982790 days and a mode of 2777 days. -Black. Shensi, China. When did this happen?. January 23, 1556. How many people died?. It is estimated that 830,000 people where killed in it.. The geological effects that were reported where ground fissures, uplift, subsidence, liquefaction, and landslides.. The Earths crust . The earths crust is in constant motion.. Volcanoes and earthquakes arise as sections of crust push . toghether. or pulled apart. Volcanoes and earthquakes are more common in certain parts of the world. By monitoring ground vibrations scientists can sometimes. 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.. They Shape Our Landscape. As plates move, we may feel these movements as earthquakes. If there were no plate motions, our planet would not look like home. There would be no mountains, no valleys, no plateaus . . By : . Deavian. foster . Class : 5H. What is an earthquake?. A earthquake is a shaking of the earths crust and is a geological phenomenon . Earthquakes can cause intense vibration of the ground, soil liquefaction, and distortion of the ground. Earthquakes can happen almost anywhere but are most common along the boundaries of the tectonic plates. Earthquakes are primarily caused of movement of the tectonic plates. It lasts more than a few seconds.. Earth’s Dynamic Crust. Original Horizontality (law of superposition):. Assumption . that sedimentary/igneous rocks form in horizontal layers . Deformity. Folded: Layers are bent/curved. Deformity. other non-linear motions. M. . A. Floyd. Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA, USA. School of Earth . Sciences, University of Bristol. United Kingdom. 2–5 May 2017. Material from T. A. Herring, R. W. King, M. A. Floyd (MIT) and S. C. . Earthquakes result from sudden motions along breaks in Earth’s crust and can affect landforms and societies.. An entire branch of Earth science, called . seismology. , is devoted to studying earthquakes.. What are Destructive Forces?. A destructive force is a process that lowers or tears down the surface features of the Earth. . Examples of Destructive Forces:. Destructive forces can occur in many ways. The following are common examples of destructive forces:. William Mackaness, Carol Blackwood, Charlotte Graves. Institute of Geography. School of GeoSciences. University of Edinburgh.

He let them old . volcanics. An earthquake is a motion of the ground surface.. According to A.N. . Strahler. and A.H. . Strahler. ,(1976), ‘An earthquake is a vibration or oscillation of the surface of the earth caused by a transient disturbance of the elastic or gravitational equilibrium of the rocks at or beneath the earth the surface’..
