Location map
- Epicentre
- Station that recorded the event
Arrival times at the stations
Each station first records the P wave, the fastest, then the S wave. The farther a station is from the epicentre, the later the waves reach it and the wider the gap between the two.
- Stations
- 15
- Epicentral distance
- 98.3 – 226.8km
- P wave
- S wave
