Earthquakes are an unpredictable force of nature, caused by the movement of tectonic plates in the earth's crust. The strength of an earthquake is measured on the Richter scale from 1 to 10, and the damage they cause can range from mild shaking to devastating destruction. Other hazards such as landslides, tsunamis, and liquefaction may also be triggered by earthquakes.
