Questions:
1. What are the common observations that an earthquake is likely to happen?
Surface Waves
Surface waves travel only through the crust. These are of lower frequency than body
waves, and are easily distinguished on a seismograph. Though they arrive after body
waves, it is the surface waves that are almost entirely responsible for the destruction
associated with earthquakes. There are two types of surface waves, the Love wave and
Rayleigh wave.
Love Waves
The first type of surface wave is called Love wave, named after Augustus Edward
Hough Love, a British mathematician who worked out the mathematical model for this
kind of wave in 1911. This wave is the fastest surface wave and moves the ground from
side-to-side. Love waves produce entirely horizontal motion. It can travel a velocity of 4
km/s and create more shaking.
Rayleigh Waves
The second type of surface wave is the Rayleigh wave, named after John William
Strutt, Lord Rayleigh, a British scientist who predicted the existence of this kind of wave
in 1885. This wave rolls along the ground just like a wave rolls across a lake or an
ocean. It moves the ground side-to-side and up and down in the same direction that the
wave is moving. Most of the trembling felt from an earthquake is due to the Rayleigh
wave, which can be much larger than the other waves.
