Week 7: Seismology
Earthquake distribu8ons • Discussion of depth, magnitude, geographical distribu6ons
of one-‐year NEIC earthquake data sets from 2016, 2015, 2014 etc
Focal Mechanisms • Basic “beach ball” paHerns for strike-‐slip, normal, thrust,
oblique earthquakes • Inferring strike, dip of fault plane and the strike of the
horizontal component of a slip vector
