Seismology 101 RevampCurrent slides, with snapshots of in-progress animations, and narration or suggested update notes
Intro video plays…
…then show title: “Seismology 101”
Introduction
• Why do we have earthquakes?• How do earthquakes and related phenomena happen? • What causes the ground to shake? • How do we measure earthquakes?
Plate Tectonics
Animation in progress at:http://web.ipac.caltech.edu/staff/tpyle/holding/seismo101/halfres/EarthWedge_H264_HalfRes.mov
Tectonics [Animation under construction: http://web.ipac.caltech.edu/staff/tpyle/holding/seismo101/newanimations/Pangaea_H264.mp4
Tectonics -> Mechanics[Decide whether to include strike-slip if choosing to modifying ridge to have transform faults]
[first just Tectonics, then have Mechanics pop up at mention]
Mechanics
Three main types of faults[Snapshots of animation version in progress shown here over old images)]
Thrust under water: Tsunami
Mechanics
Seismic Waves: Body WavesP-Wave S-Wave
Seismic Waves: Surface Waves
Love Wave
Rayleigh Wave
Earthquake Magnitude Scale
Intensity: ShakeMap
Wrapping-up…
