Answer:

Seismology is the study of earthquakes and seismic waves that move through and around the earth.

A seismograph, or seismometer, is an instrument used to detect and record earthquakes. Generally, it consists of a mass attached to a fixed base.

The Richter scale is a scale of numbers used to tell the power (or magnitude) of earthquakes.

A tsunami is a series of waves caused by earthquakes or undersea volcanic eruptions. ... But as the waves travel inland, they build up to higher and higher heights as the depth of the ocean decreases. The speed of tsunami waves depends on ocean depth rather than the distance from the source of the wave.

A cyclone is a general term for a weather system in which winds rotate inwardly to an area of low atmospheric pressure. For large weather systems, the circulation pattern is in a counterclockwise direction in the Northern Hemisphere and a clockwise direction in the Southern Hemispher
