What is Earthquake Measurement Instruments Overview about?

Earthquake instruments such as seismometers, seismographs, and accelerometers are used to detect and measure ground shaking during earthquakes. Seismometers use pendulums to measure ground motions from seismic waves. Seismographs graphically record seismic waves to determine earthquake characteristics. Accelerometers directly measure ground acceleration, including during strong shaking near earthquake epicenters. These instruments provide data to study earthquake properties and reduce hazards.
