Seismic waves are usually generated by movements of the Earth's tectonic plates but may also be caused by explosions, volcanoes and landslides. When an earthquake occurs shockwaves of energy, called seismic waves, are released from the earthquake focus.

Seismic waves begin where rocks first move along the fault at a location inside the earth called epicenter location on the earth’s surface directly above the earthquakes focus
