Pacific Northwest Seismic Data This is a map of seismic activity of the Pacific Northwest Each yellow (35-70 km deep) and orange (less than 35 km deep) dot represents an earthquake What pattern do you see? What does this pattern mean? Map generated using the U.S. Geological Survey. “Earthquake Hazards Program :Earthquake Center”

Southeast Asia Seismic Data This is a map of seismic activity of Southeast Asia Each yellow (35-70 km deep) and orange (less than 35 km deep) dot represents an earthquake What pattern do you see? What does this pattern mean? Map generated using the U.S. Geological Survey. “Earthquake Hazards Program :Earthquake Center”

Pacific Rim Seismic Data This is a map of seismic activity of the Pacific Rim Each yellow (35-70 km deep) and orange (less than 35 km deep) dot represents an earthquake Do you see any patterns? What do these patterns tell you? Map generated using the U.S. Geological Survey. “Earthquake Hazards Program :Earthquake Center”
