4. Seismic Waves IntroductionSeismology is the study of the passage of elastic waves (see below) through the earth. Earthquake seismology is the best tool to study the interior of the earth. When an earthquake or explosion occurs, part of the energy released is as elastic waves that are transmitted through the earth. The waves are then detected and recorded by seismograms, which measure, amplify and record the motion of the ground. The information is then used to determine earthquake locations, the subsurface structures and etc.  This pendulum-mounted seismograph records horizontal motion
