What are four instruments that geologists use to monitor movements along faults?
Geologists have created Creep Meters, GPS Satellites, Range/ Laser devices, and Tilt Meters. These instruments help keep track of changes in the land surface and elevation.- Polly T. Denver, CO
What type of movement occurs along normal faults?
vertical... i think
Seismic waves are generated by movement along?
Seismic waves are generated by movement along faults. See the related question for more information.
Is a seismic wave caused by energy released as the result of rock movement along a fault?
Yes, seismic waves are the result of energy released by the movement of rocks along faults.
Why do longer faults produce larger earthquakes than short faults?
When a longer fault ruptures, you have movement along a longer section of the crust, and so more rock is moving.
What instrument measures the horizontal movements along faults?
tiltmeter
What are four instruments that are used to detect movement along faults?
Four Instruments that are used to detect movement along faults are:1. Tiltmeter2. Creep meter3. Laser-ranging device4. Network of Earth-Orbiting satellites called GPS (global positioning system)

What do geologists use to monitor the upward movement along a fault?
Geologists use a tiltmeter to monitor the upward movement along a fault.

What are three in which geologist use seismograph data?
They map faults, detect changes along faults, and develop a method of predicting earthquakes

How are Seismographs data used?
Seismographs and fault-monitoring devices provide data used to map faults and detect changes along faults.
