Living in a quake zone.
In many parts of the world, earthquakes are a fact of life. From slight tremors to destructive quakes measuring above 5.5 on the Richter scale, earthquakes all start the same way. Readers explore the causes and effects of earthquakes throughout this book, studying recent major earthquakes that have happened around the world along the way. Presented in an exciting news magazine style complete with splashy headlines and eyewitness accounts of devastating quakes, the main content and statistics boxes complement STEM curriculums through detailed earth science information and discussion of the technology used before, during, and after earthquakes.
