The natural phenomenon that seismology studies earthquakes. Seismology also studies seismic waves that move though the Earth. Seismic waves result from earthquakes.
Seismic trace is the recorded curve from a seismograph when ground movement is recorded. The term is used in seismology which is the study of earthquakes.
Because of the study of seismic waves from earthquakes
This link has a bunch of information on different scientific study techniques for earthquakes: http://earthquake.usgs.gov/research/topics.php
On a typical day, a seismologist is usually studying the instruments that monitor shocks and any seismic activity on the earth. Seismologists carry out a lot of graph reading and record keeping.
The seismic waves that the earthquakes make travel slowly and scientists can track them
i only know that it is used to measure the distnace from the epicenter

A seismometer or seismograph will measure the amplitude and frequency of seismic waves which are produced by earthquakes.
The greek word for earthquakes is seismos (σεισμός) . A word that derives from that is seismology : the scientific study of earthquakes, seismic activity etc

no. It is the study of the tectonic plates and the earthquakes that form. It studies the seismic activities of these plates. Thus seismology.
Because of the study of seismic waves from earthquakes
mostly Geophysicists study the earth via physical methods. Most commonly they use seismic waves to study the subsurface or earthquakes.
Seismologists are people who study earthquakes and the propagation of earthquake waves (more correctly termed seismic waves) through the Earth.
One way is from seismic waves, which are formed when earthquakes occur.
Some geologists specialize as geophysicists, who study the physical properties and processes of the Earth. This field includes seismology, or the study of earthquakes. A person who studies earthquakes is called a seismologist.
