Difference between Paleoseismology and Soil liquefaction

Paleoseismology vs. Soil liquefaction

Paleoseismology looks at geologic sediments and rocks, for signs of ancient earthquakes. Soil liquefaction describes a phenomenon whereby a saturated or partially saturated soil substantially loses strength and stiffness in response to an applied stress, usually earthquake shaking or other sudden change in stress condition, causing it to behave like a liquid.

Similarities between Paleoseismology and Soil liquefaction

Paleoseismology and Soil liquefaction have 2 things in common (in Unionpedia): Earthquake, Sediment.

Earthquake

An earthquake (also known as a quake, tremor or temblor) is the shaking of the surface of the Earth, resulting from the sudden release of energy in the Earth's lithosphere that creates seismic waves.

Sediment

Sediment is a naturally occurring material that is broken down by processes of weathering and erosion, and is subsequently transported by the action of wind, water, or ice, and/or by the force of gravity acting on the particles.
