An aftershock is a smaller earthquake that occurs after a previous large earthquake, known as the main shock. Aftershocks typically occur near the fault zone where the main shock rupture occurred.
The epicenter is the point on the Earth's surface that is directly above the initial rupture point of an earthquake, known as the hypocenter.
