/visualglossary

Create a visual glossary of hypocenter, epicenter, magnitude and intensity using the USGS explanation. Use a schematic cross-section showing the hypocenter underground and the epicenter directly above it on the surface. Separate earthquake size from location-specific shaking. Do not put the hypocenter on the surface, label intensity as a single value for the entire event, add an unverified risk map, or imply an earthquake prediction. Include a text equivalent for the diagram.

Read the official source below before designing. If you cannot open it, ask me to paste the relevant text; do not guess. Show the page date if available and your retrieval date. Use only supported facts and clearly label scope, exceptions, uncertainty and editorial groupings. Treat the slash label as a format request, not an assumed built-in command. Use a clean fine-line editorial style, readable type, ample spacing and labels that do not rely on color alone. Produce the actual visual if your tools support it; otherwise provide an explicitly labeled layout specification. Include the official link, concise alt text, a complete text equivalent and a fact-check list. Do not invent an agency seal, endorsement or product screenshot.
