Locating an Epicenter Lab: Need a drawing compass!
Start in class, Finish for Homework. Answer Questions 2-8 on a Separate sheet of paper, using **Complete Sentences.**

Tips for Doing well on this Lab: (Question by Question)
(There is no #1)- just observing.


 * 2: Look only at listed cities on the map where you drew the epicenter. Give DISTANCE in KM and also the Directional Location of the nearest city. (ie 50 km SW of the epicenter...)


 * 3: Only look at the information in the DATA TABLE for this one.


 * 4: Think of this question as "Why not just two seismopraphs" Why do we need three?


 * For # 5, cross out San Francisco and write Savannah in both places. Think about this question in terms of "working backwards." You will use your graph on the first page ultimately to figure it out...**


 * 6: What is the trend, the farther away you get from the epicenter? What happens to the distance in arrival times?


 * 7: What landforms or features would be in an area of high earthquake risk? What would be around a fault line? We've discussed a few things in class.


 * 8: A "freak" event is one that is very uncommon to the area. An Earthquake in San Francisco is NOT a freak event b/c it is in a Major risk area (it is expected.)



HOMEWORK: Go to the Following Link to Practice Locating the Epicenter!
Either print your Results/Certificate page or take a snapshot with your phone. Make sure your name is in the picture (written on a piece of paper/ post-it)

CLICK HERE FOR WEBSITE!

Part I: Locating the Epicenter. An "Excellent" Rating will earn you 5% on your Lab Grade! For the Homework grade will accept a "Good" rating.


 * This is how I want you to snapshot.**


 * Part 2: If you continue to the Measuring Magnitude Portion and receive a** Certificate,** it will be worth an Additional 5% on your Lab Grade. Must Print out Certificate, Email me, or Take a Picture with your Phone. Your name must be typed into the Certificate to Receive credit.

Section 5.4: Monitoring Devices:

** NOTE: THESE DEVICES ARE FOR "PREDICTING" EARTHQUAKES, NOT MEASURING MAGNITUDE AND LOCATING EPICENTERS! **
For each picture.. 1. What kind of monitoring device is it? 2. What kind of faults does it monitor? A: satellite--All

=A: Tiltmeter--Normal and Reverse (changes in elevation- think hanging wall movement)=



=A: Laser Ranging (any change in distance) -- ALL=

=A: Creepmeter-- Strike Slip only=
