What is the location on the surface directly above the earthquake focus called?
The location on the surface directly above the earthquake focus is called the epicenter.
Is the location on the earth's surface directly above the epicenter of an earthquake called the focus?
No, the location on the Earth's surface directly above the epicenter of an earthquake is called the hypocenter or focus. The focus is the actual point within the Earth where the earthquake originates, whereas the epicenter is the point on the Earth's surface directly above the focus.
Is The location on earths surface directly above the epicenter is called the focus?
yes
What is the location on the earth's surface directly above the epicenter called?
You have confused the term epicentre with hypocentre (or focus), whereby the focus is the point within the earth where the earthquake rupture occurs and the epicentre is the point on the surface directly above this.
The point directly above the focus of a quake?
The point directly above the focus of an earthquake is known as the epicenter. It is the location on the Earth's surface vertically above where the earthquake originated underground.

What is the spot directly above the focus where an earthquakes occurs?
The spot directly above the focus where an earthquake occurs is called the epicenter. This is the point on the Earth's surface that is directly above the underground location where the earthquake starts, known as the focus or hypocenter.
What is the location on the surface directly above the earthquake fous?
The location on the Earth's surface directly above the earthquake focus is referred to as the epicenter. This is the point where seismic waves originating from the earthquake focus first reach the surface. It is usually where the strongest shaking is felt during an earthquake.
