A seaquake can be defined as "an earthquake originating under the sea floor".--Wanblee 22:11, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

I think this page could use a little reformating and a lot of additional information. I'd like to add some information on the types of waves, the basic science behind it, a little more history, and information about modern studies in seismology. I'd also like to add a content section to help keep it organised. It'll probably be a slow process, though. Does anyone have any problems with the changes I'm proposing or does anyone have any other suggestions? --Beabria, September 21, 2006

[edit] "Logos"

Perhaps a better interpretation of the greek "logos", would be "study of" rather than word, which doesn't really make sense in this context. An example of this si the world Biology, defined as study of life.
