IRIS is committed to supporting educators in their need for “virtual”
investigations and e-learning as a result of stay-at-home orders. Through
June 19th, IRIS will be releasing a weekly 'Teachable Moment' that offers
an opportunity for teachers and students to explore various elements of
seismology. These will be offered in addition to our regular earthquake
summaries.
This week’s investigation focuses on earthquake shaking. While the
magnitude of an earthquake is an important way to desc...

All,
Happy Friday everyone! Here is our fifth seismology mini-investigation to
support those of you leading e-learning as a result of stay-at-home orders!
This week’s lab builds on the learning from prior weeks as students will
explore how earthquakes move the ground in three-components of motion… and
how that motion is recorded by modern seismographs (Vertical, N-S, and E-W
motion). Students will explore how and why we identify P and S wave
arrivals on particular components of motion (e.g....
