3 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What are the three main parameters defined in a scenario earthquake?
Think about what makes an earthquake scenario.
Why is hypocentre depth significant?
Consider its impact on surface dynamics.
What parameters define a scenario earthquake?
Remember the parameters mentioned earlier in the class.
True or False: The depth of hypocentre has no effect on surface shaking.
Think about how shaking diminishes with depth.
Consider an earthquake scenario with a magnitude of 8.0, a hypocentre depth of 10 km, and a strike-slip fault. Predict the potential impact on nearby urban areas.
Evaluate how the parameters correlate with intensity and surface impact.
Compare two scenario events: one at a 5 km hypocentre depth with a 6.0 magnitude and another at a 40 km depth with a 7.0 magnitude. What might be the differences in their surface effects?
Think about the relationship between depth, magnitude, and surface shaking.
