An earthquake is the result of a sudden release of energy in the Earth’s crust that creates seismic waves. The seismicity, seismism or seismic activity of an area refers to the frequency, type and size of earthquakes experienced over a period of time. At the Earth’s surface, earthquakes manifest themselves by shaking and sometimes displacement of the ground.
