Understand fault plane solutions and the polarity of ground motion in seismic events. Learn about positive and negative polarity on the vertical component and fault plane solutions from an introduction to seismology.
E N D
Example of positive polarity on the vertical component, i.e. the first ground motion is up.
Example of negative polarity on the vertical component, i.e. the first ground motion is down.
