To determine which city is furthest from the epicenter of an earthquake, you can compare the distances from the epicenter to each city using geographical coordinates (latitude and longitude). By calculating the straight-line distance (using the Haversine formula or similar methods) for each city from the epicenter, you can identify the one with the largest distance. Additionally, mapping tools or geographical information systems (GIS) can visually represent these distances to aid in this determination.
The difference between the two seismograph readings could tell you where the epicenter is located.
The epicenter is the point on the Earth's surface directly above where the earthquake originates, known as the focus. By observing the intensity and timing of the seismic waves that reach each city, seismologists can pinpoint the epicenter's location.
The epicenter of the quake near Christchurch, New Zealand in 2011 was 6 miles south east of the city at a depth of approximately 3 miles.

To determine which city is closest to the earthquake epicenter, you'll need to examine the map for the marked epicenter location and then measure the distance to each city. The city with the shortest distance from the epicenter is the closest. If you provide specific city names or coordinates, I can help you analyze the data further.
Aberdeen is furthest north.
The difference between the two seismograph readings could tell you where the epicenter is located.
