earthquakes that produce more horizontal
Aftershocks cause the most earthquake-related deaths and injuries.
The Earthquake in Kobe did as much damage as 200 Billion dollars in US money(160 Million Yen). The Kilauea's Damage cost was abot 230 Billion dollars.

earthquakes that produce more horizontal
It means how much damage it causes.
The measure of how much damage an earthquake causes on the surface is determined by the earthquake magnitude and the distance from the epicenter. Earthquake damage can also be influenced by local geology and infrastructure resilience. The Modified Mercalli Intensity (MMI) scale is commonly used to assess the level of shaking and resulting damage.

Intensity.
Earthquakes that causes most damage when two plates crashed and one plate moves upwards vertically than the other plate. There is not really a name for what earthquake does the most damage. I'm doing a unit for grade 7, and it has the same question you just asked. Sorry if this did not help! if it did,, you're you are super duper welcome.!!~ Daniela
An earthquake causes terrain damage due to the plate tectonics movement. This will cause some parts of the earth surface to become loose and sink in which will result into terrain damage.
Intersity
The measure of how much damage an earthquake causes at the surface is called the "intensity" of the earthquake. This is typically assessed using the Modified Mercalli Intensity (MMI) scale, which rates the effects of an earthquake based on observations of damage and human experiences. Intensity varies from place to place depending on factors like distance from the epicenter, geological conditions, and building structures.

The TIP
The type of earthquake that causes damage to roads and buildings is typically a strong or major earthquake. These earthquakes have higher magnitudes and release more energy, leading to more intense shaking that can result in structural damage to infrastructure like roads and buildings.
