The third general type of earthquake wave is called a surface wave, reason being is that its motion is restricted to near the ground surface. Such waves correspond to ripples of water that travel across a lake. Surface waves in earthquakes can be divided into two types. The first is called a Love wave. Its motion is essentially that of S waves that have no vertical displacement; it moves the ground from side to side in a horizontal plane but at right angles to the direction of propagation.
Earth is the medium for earthquake waves. Waves that can travel only through a medium are called mechanical waves. Most waves, including water waves, sound waves, and earthquake waves, are mechanical waves. Electromagnetic waves are the most common kind of nonmechanical waves.
