They use seismic waves.

They compare worldwide data.

They collect data from seismographs.

Explanation:

Options A (They use seismic waves), C (They collect data from seismographs) and D (They measure arrival times of surface waves) follow.

Explanation:

A sudden release of energy in the lithosphere of the earth that creates the seismic waves and results in the shaking of the Earth's surface is known as an earthquake.

Geologists during the occurrence of an Earthquake employs seismometers to find the source of the earthquake. Geologists can find out the epicentre of an earthquake by observing the seismograms from diverse recording locations. The difference in the time between the P- and S-waves notifies us about the distance the earthquake is from the seismograph. Therefore, by estimating the time interval at three stations we can find out where the epicentre is.
