List of earthquakes?
The USGS National Earthquake Information Center (NEIC) maintains lists and maps of earthquakes around the world. You can see earthquake density and seismicity maps for regions and the world.USGS Earthquake Lists, Maps, and Statistics
What are examples of density limiting factors?
Density-independent factors are environmental factors affecting a population regardless of size, such as temperature and oxygen supply.One Density-independent factors would be the impacts of an earthquake on a pack of wild dogs. The number of dogs does not affect the result of the earthquake upon the dog population. In contrast, drought is a density-dependent factor because more dogs will cause greater competition for limited water resources.or just C. competition
How can satellites be used to collect data on earthquake faults?
By doing deep earth tectonic plate scans to find changes in density and movement.
What is a dencity dependent factor?
A density dependent factor is for example, lower birth rate because there isn't enough food in a certain place. A density independent factor is an earthquake or fire, something that will happen regardless of how many organisms there are.
Would an earthquake be more severe if it had a higher or lower magnitude?
An earthquake with a higher magnitude would generally be more severe. Magnitude measures the amount of energy released by an earthquake, so a higher magnitude indicates a stronger earthquake with more potential to cause damage. However, the severity also depends on other factors including the depth of the earthquake, population density, and building infrastructure in the affected area.
What Instrument measures the density of an earthquake?
The instrument that can measure the density of an earthquake is called an seismometer. The first seismoscope dates back to 132 AD.
Is earthquake-related tsunami a density dependent factor or density independent factor?
density independent factor
What fours factors affect the intensity of an earthquake?
epicenter. focus. magnitude. and density
What instrument measures density of an earthquake?
A seismograph records the intensity measured by the Ritcher Scale.
What does an increase in density of the medium have on the speed of an earthquake?
Well if the density is higher that means it's heavier, that means it waves have to work harder there for going slower.
What scale is used to determine an earthquakes density?
The Richter Scale is used to determine the earthquake density. The scale is measured from low as 1 to high as 10.
What factors affect how much damage results from an earthquake?
Rock density Rock structure Type of rock Geographic location How strong the earth quake Type of earthquake

Why do earthquake waves travel in sharp curves within crust?
It is cause by the Mojo Discontinuity. It is a zone that differs in density.
Where earthquake waves travel faster whether in rock or water?
Faster in rock. the higher the density, the higher the speed.

What are earthquake generated waves called?
Earthquake generated waves are called seismic waves. These are waves of energy that travel through the Earth's layers. Their velocity depends on the elasticity and density of the medium that they travel through.
