What is an earthquake?
http://earthquake.usgs.gov/image_glossary/
Seismogram: A seismogram is a record written by a seismograph in response to ground motions produced by an earthquake, explosion, or other ground-motion sources
Earthquake: Earthquake is a term used to describe both sudden slip on a fault, and the resulting ground shaking and radiated seismic energycaused by the slip, or by volcanic or magmatic activity, or other sudden stress changes in the earth.

Basic earthquake termsHypocenter (Focus): The hypocenter is the point within the earth where an earthquake rupture starts.
Epicenter: The epicenter is the point on the earth's surface vertically above the hypocenter.
Magnitude: The magnitude is a number that characterizes the relative size of an earthquake.
http://earthquake.usgs.gov/image_glossary/
Focal Depth: The focal depth refers to the depth of an earthquake hypocenter.
Fault Plane: The fault plane is the planar (flat) surface along which there is slip during an earthquake.

Where do earthquakes occur ?http://neic.usgs.gov/neis/general/seismicity/world.html
10
Ring of Fire(the Circum-Pacific
belt )
The "Ring of Fire“ is the zone of earthquakes surrounding the Pacific Ocean, about 90% of the world's earthquakes occur there. The next most seismic region (5-6% of earthquakes) is the Alpide belt (extends from Mediterranean region, eastward through Turkey, Iran, and northern India.

Earthquake Hazard and RiskEarthquake hazard:Earthquake hazard is anything associated with an earthquake that may affect the normal activities of people. This includes surface faulting, ground shaking, landslides, liquefaction, tectonic deformation, tsunamis, and seiches.
Earthquake risk:Earthquake risk is the probable damage, and number of people that are expected to be hurt or killed if a likely earthquake on a particular fault occurs.

Elastic Rebound Theory - Reid 1910

An earthquake is caused by the rebound of elastically strained rock; From the observation of 1906 San Francisco EQ

Plate Tectonics is the theory supported by a wide range of evidence that considers the earth's crust and upper mantle to be composed of several large, thin, relatively rigid plates that move relative to one another.
Plate Tectonics
28
Crust, Mantle and LithosphereThe crust is the outermost major layer of the earth, ranging from about 10 to 65 km in thickness worldwide. The uppermost 15-35 km of crust is brittle enough to produce earthquakes.
The mantle is the part of the earth's interior between the metallic outer core and the crust.
The lithosphere is the outer solid part of the earth, including the crust and uppermost mantle. The lithosphere is about 100 kmthick.The lithosphere below the crust is brittle enough at some locations to produce earthquakes by faulting, such as within asubducted oceanic plate.

History of the earth
http://pubs.usgs.gov/publications/text/historical.html
Before the advent of plate tectonics, some people already believed that the present-day continents were the fragmented pieces of preexisting larger landmasses. The diagrams below show the break-up of thesupercontinent Pangaea (meaning "all lands" in Greek).
theory of continental drift

Earth’s 14 lithosheric plates and their movementsConvergence plate boundary: subduction zone etc.Divergence plate boundary: Plates diverges at mid-ocean ridgesTransform fault: Plates move laterally each other
31
An oceanic spreading ridge is the fracture zone along the ocean bottom where molten mantle material comes to the surface, thus creating new crust. This fracture can be seen beneath the ocean as a line of ridges that form as molten rock reaches the ocean bottom and solidifies.An oceanic trench is a linear depression of the sea floor caused by the subduction of one plate under another.
Crustal movements and plate boundaries
32
Three types of plate convergence
33Dip Slip (normal or thrust) Strike Slip (right or left lateral)
Four basic types of faults
Fault: A fault is a fracture along which the blocks of crust on either side have moved relative to one another parallel to the fracture.
34
Thrust
Normal
Strike-slip faults are vertical (or nearly vertical) fractures where the blocks have mostly moved horizontally. If the block opposite an observer looking across the fault moves to the right, the slip style is termed right lateral; if the block moves to the left, the motion is termed left lateral.
Dip-slip faults are inclined fractures where the blocks have mostly shifted vertically. If the rock mass above an inclined fault moves down, the fault is termed normal, whereas if the rock above the fault moves up, the fault is termed reverse (or thrust). Oblique-slip faults have significant components of both slip styles.
Strike-slip
Oblique-slip faults: Oblique-slip faulting suggests both dip-slip faulting and strike-slip faulting. It is caused by a combination of shearing and tension or compressional forces, e.g., left-lateral normal fault.

39
Dip: Dip is the angle that a planar geologic surface (for example, a fault) is inclined from the horizontal.
Strike: The strike is the trend or bearing, relative to north, of the line defined by the intersection of a planar geologic surface (for example, a fault or a bed) and a horizontal surface such as the ground.

Focal Mechanism
http://quake.wr.usgs.gov/recenteqs/beachball.htm
Fault plane solution: A fault plane solution is a way of showing the fault and the direction of slipon it from an earthquake, using circles with two intersecting curves that look like beach balls. Also called a focal-mechanism solution.
T: Tension axis P: Pressure axis
41
Asperity: An asperity is an area on a fault that is stuck. The earthquake rupture usually begins at an asperity.
Directivity: Directivity is an effect of a fault rupturing whereby earthquake ground motion in the direction of rupture propagation is more severe than that in other directions from the earthquake source.
Shake Map of the 1994 Northridge earthquake shows the result of rupture directivity toward the north.
Slip: Slip is the relative displacement of formerly adjacent points on opposite sides of a fault, measured on the fault surface.
42
Blind thrust fault: A blind thrust fault is a thrust fault that does not rupture all the way up to the surface so there is no evidence of it on the ground. It is "buried" under the uppermost layers of rock in the crust. (e.g. the 1994 Northridge EQ)
Surface faulting: Surface faulting is displacement that reaches the earth's surface during slip along a fault. Commonly occurs with shallow earthquakes, those with an epicenter less than 20 km. Surface faulting also may accompany aseismic creep or natural or man-induced subsidence.

Historic: Refers to the period for which historical records are available (approximately the past 200 years in California and Nevada).
Holocene: Refers to a period of time between the present and 10,000 years before present. Faults of this age are commonly considered active.
Active Fault: An active fault is a fault that is likely to have another earthquake sometime in the future. Faults are commonly considered to be active if they have moved one or more times in the last 10,000 years.
