From the movement of rocks.
They map faults, detect changes along faults, and develop a method of predicting earthquakes

So that geologist can predict how much force of pressure applied on the faults to predict how strong the earthquake.

laser-ranging device
numerous folds and faults would appear in the bedrock
By locating where faults are active and where past earthquake have occurred.
Geologists collect data on friction along the side of faults so that they can predict how much pressure is applied on the faults so they can predict how strong the earthquake is.
That is because geologists need to find out the past and if they accidentally change something, it won't be the past anymore. And faults and folds are delecite so they need to be careful during observing them.
A scientist specializing in tectonics is called a geophysicist or a tectonic geologist. They study the processes that shape the Earth's crust, including plate movements and the formation of mountains and faults.
yes
The factors that help geologists determine for earthquake risk for religion are the movement of seismic waves along faults and friction.Hope this helped!
