🌍 Seismic Deep Dive: S Waves! 🌊

1️⃣ What are S Waves? S Waves, or secondary waves, are a type of seismic wave that shake the ground in a side-to-side perpendicular motion. They're the second-fastest waves.

[Mary Tsiboe @GeoAmaT]

Seismic waves are powerful energy waves triggered by events like earthquakes and volcanic eruptions🌋, or even human-made.
Types of Seismic Waves
1️⃣ P-waves: Fast and compressional! 🚀
2️⃣ S-waves: Shearing and shake things up! 🌀
3️⃣ Surface waves: Rolling across

Spotted yesterday at #MaunaLoa – a lava boat rides the waves! On Dec 7, a lava boat was spotted floating down channel. Lava boats can form when portions of the cone or lava channel break away & are rafted downstream. Hot lava cools to its surface to create that smooth exterior.
