epicenter

Earth science; Remote sensing

The point on Earth's surface that is directly above the place where an earthquake first starts.

seismograph

Earth science; Remote sensing

An instrument that detects and records vibrations and movements in the Earth during an earthquake.

seismology

Earth science; Remote sensing

The scientific study of earthquakes, including their causes and effects is called as seismology in Earth science.
