How to use "Seismic" in context?
Earthquakes are stirring things up, both literally and figuratively. The sense of an earthquake may be summed up quite simply by the phrase "the ground shook.'' There is no definitive answer to the question of exactly how earthquakes work. Scientists do know, however, that earthquakes are the result of the sudden release of energy from the Earth's lithosphere - the rigid outermost layer of the planet. That energy is often released in the form of particles called seismic waves. The waves travel through the Earth's mantle and crust and cause the ground to shake.
