1. Use the following S-P wave time differences to calculate thedistance to the epicenter from each location.
2. Plot 3 circles in Google Earth to locate the epicenter Somedistances are very far, so circles may be LARGE.
3. Select the approximate location for the Epicenter from thechoices provided below. If your circles don't perfectly intersect,try to decide what is the most likely location of the epicenter foryour answer.
4. Take a screenshot or photograph of your 3 circles on GoogleEarth
Your Data:
Station A: Isla Barro Colorado, Panama, S-P = 3.07 minutes
Station B: Grand Turk, S-P = 4.48 minutes
Station C: Baker, Oregon, S-P = 7.5 minutes
