An ocean earthquake commonly occurs between 200 and 1,000 years. As the pressure of floating plates bouncing against a continental plate rises, the continental plate starts pushing back. This causes an ocean floor island to recede underwater until the pressure is too great.
After the stone hits the water ripples move outwards from the centre in every direction. An earthquake releases energy as shock waves, the so-called seismic waves, which ripple across the earth's surface. The seismic waves created as they move from the epicentre an earthquake vary.
