Welcome to the interactive guide on locating earthquake epicenters! This tutorial covers essential skills, including obtaining three seismographs, converting time delays into distance, and accurately identifying the epicenter location. Learn how to interpret P-wave and S-wave arrival times, use travel time graphs, and apply calculations to find distances between seismic stations. Record your findings and visualize the epicenter where the circles intersect. Whether you're a beginner or brushing up on your skills, this accessible guide is perfect for you!
