Figure 1: Monitors displaying real time waveforms recorded by seismic stations across North America created by the Alaska and Peru earthquakes of August 15, 2007. The top monitors show 24 hours of time, the bottom monitors show 2 hours of time. The photo was taken approximately one hour after the first arrivals of the P-waves for the Peruvian event. The upper monitors clearly show the P-wave arrivals of the Alaskan event, followed approximately 3.5 hours later by the P-wave arrivals of the Peruvian event.
