Answer» Answer: Epicenter is the location on the surface of the Earth directly above where the earthquake starts. Seismic focus (aka HYPOCENTER) is the location in the Earth where the earthquake starts. The place of origin WITHIN the Earth of an earthquake; usually some more or less RESTRICTED area of a fault surface. If the focus is to be some PARTICULAR point, it is the central point of the area over which fault movement OCCURRED and caused the earthquake. |
