Deaths attributed to the tsunami in Penang, Langkawi and Kedah. [6] Mildly felt and no damage. Twenty three earthquakes ranging from M w 1.7 to 3.7. Strike-slip earthquakes along reactivated portions of the 120 km (75 mi)-long Bukit Tinggi Fault.
Earthquake Seismogram of the earthquake. The earthquake measured 6.4 on the moment magnitude scale, and had a maximum Mercalli intensity of VIII (Severe). It came exactly a year after a 6.2 magnitude earthquake struck onshore in the Cape Mendocino area on December 20, 2021, causing only minor damage.
The earthquake generated a seismic oscillation of the Earth's surface of up to 200–300 mm (8–12 in), equivalent to the effect of the tidal forces caused by the Sun and Moon. The seismic waves of the earthquake were felt across the planet, as far away as the U.S. state of Oklahoma, where vertical movements of 3 mm (0.12 in) were recorded. By ...
The quake, which hit at 1:49 p.m., had a reported depth of 1.5 km and struck 9 km southwest of Corona. The quake was originally reported as a 4.5 magnitude, then reduced to a 4.3, and ultimately ...
A magnitude 4.1 earthquake was reported offshore in California on the morning of New Year’s day, according to the US Geological Survey. The seismic event occurred at 8:27 am local time 11 miles ...
In the last 10 days, there have been two earthquakes of magnitude 3 or greater centered nearby. An average of 25 earthquakes with magnitudes of 4 to 5 occur each year in California and Nevada ...
The 2010 Baja California earthquake (also known as 2010 Easter earthquake, 2010 Sierra El Mayor earthquake, or 2010 El Mayor – Cucapah earthquake) occurred on April 4 ( Easter Sunday) with a moment magnitude of 7.2 and a maximum Mercalli intensity of VII ( Very strong ). The shock originated at 15:40:41 local time (3:40:41 PM PDT) south of ...
A magnitude 6.4 earthquake knocked out power for thousands of people in Northern California early Tuesday. The earthquake hit at 2:34 a.m. Pacific Time about 7.5 miles southwest of the town of ...
