What else can I help you with?
What is the shaking of the ground that precedes an earthquake?
Tremors
What is an earthquake after shock?
Aftershocks are smaller earthquakes that occur after a larger earthquake in the same area. They are a result of the earths crust near the fault rupture readjusting as a result of the main earthquake (also known as the "main shock").
Can an earthquake occur in the ocean?
Yes. An earthquake may occur in the ocean.
Why do tsunami's hit Japan?
This is because earthquakes and tremors are common in Japan. That triggers tsunamis to occur
How long after an earthquake does nausea occur?
There is no requirement for nausea to occur due to an earthquake or any other natural phenomenon.
What are the tremors called that occur as an aftereffect of an earthquake?
These are known as aftershocks.
What do you call the vibration from an earthquake?
Earthquake tremors.
What is the shaking of the ground that precedes an earthquake called?
The shaking of the ground that precedes an earthquake is called a foreshock. Foreshocks can occur hours, days, or even weeks before the main earthquake event.
A machine that tells you that an earthquake is coming is called?
A seismograph records an earthquake while it is happening, but as of yet there are no machines that can predict earthquakes.
What are the vibrations felt before an earthquake called?
They are called aftershocks, or tremors.
What are small tremors before a major earhquake?
Small tremors before a major earthquake are referred to as foreshocks. They occur before 70 percent of large seismic events, and to a lesser extent before smaller earthquakes.
What is the term for tremors felt after an earthquake?
Aftershock
What is the shaking of the ground that precedes an earthquake?
Tremors
What are the vibrational tremors sent out from the earthquake?
after shock :)
Do small tremors occur after an earthquake?
An earthquake is caused by 'plates' in the ground shifting and moving. and after a major shift there might be a small aftershock witch is when the 'plates' in the ground move slightly as they are going back into place
Shaking of the ground that precedes an earthquake?
The shaking of the ground that precedes an earthquake is called a foreshock. Foreshocks occur as a result of the buildup of stress along a fault line before the main earthquake happens. Not all earthquakes have foreshocks, and they can vary in intensity.
What time of year will a earthquake most likely occur?
there isnt a specific time, the seasons do not affect when an earthquake occurs
