Seismogram - Wikipedia
A seismogram is a graph output by a seismograph. It is a record of the ground motion at a measuring station as a function of time. Seismograms typically record motions in three cartesian axes (x, y, and z), with the z axis perpendicular to the Earth's surface and the x- and y- axes parallel to the surface.

A seismogram is the recording of the ground shaking at the specific location of the instrument. On a seismogram, the HORIZONTAL axis = time (measured in seconds) and the VERTICAL axis= ground displacement (usually measured in millimeters).

What is a Seismograph and How Does It Work?
The seismograph is the term for the entire device, including the seismometer. The seismometer can only provide data with the help of the other parts of the seismograph. These include the casing, recording drum and even the pencil used to mark the data on the graph. The resultant chart of the seismic data is known as a seismogram.

Seismometer - Wikipedia
The output of such a device—formerly recorded on paper (see picture) or film, now recorded and processed digitally—is a seismogram. Such data is used to locate and characterize earthquakes, and to study the internal structure of Earth.
About the Seismograms - USGS Earthquake Hazards Program
When an earthquake occurs the seismogram will show ground motions that typically last from several tens of seconds to many minutes, depending on the size of the earthquake and the sensitivity of the seismograph.
Where can I see current or past seismograms?
Seismologists evaluate the hypocenter location and the focal mechanism of an earthquake to decide if the earthquake occurs on a named fault. Research shows that many earthquakes occur on small, un-named faults located near well-known faults.
What is a Seismogram? (with pictures) - AllTheScience
2024年5月21日 · What is a Seismogram? A seismograph is a machine used by scientists to measure movement in the Earth. The readout from this machine is called a seismogram. It can reveal valuable information such as the location or severity of an earthquake. The results on a seismogram are displayed by lines.
