Definitions:

Modified Mercalli Intensity

A scale for measuring the intensity of an earthquake based on its observed effects on people, buildings, and the Earth's surface.

Richter Magnitude

The Richter magnitude scale is a numeric scale used to express the energy released by an earthquake, with each whole number representing a tenfold increase in measured amplitude.

P-Waves

Primary waves, or compressional waves, are the fastest seismic waves and can travel through both solid and liquid layers of the Earth.

S-Waves

Secondary waves, or shear waves, are a type of seismic waves that move the ground perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation.
