The Intensity 7 (震度7, Shindo 7) is the maximum intensity in the Japan Meteorological Agency seismic intensity scale, covering earthquakes with an instrumental intensity (計測震度) of 6.5 and up. [15] At Intensity 7, it becomes impossible to move at will. [13] The intensity was created following the 1948 Fukui earthquake.

List of earthquakes in Japan. "Japanese earthquake" redirects here. For the 11 March 2011 earthquake in the Tōhoku region, see 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami. Earthquakes M5.5+ around Japan (1900–2016) M7.0–7.9=163 EQs, M8.0+=14 EQs. [1] This is a list of earthquakes in Japan with either a magnitude greater than or equal to 7.0 or ...
The 2000 Izu Islands earthquakes is an earthquake swarm that occurred around Miyake-jima, Kōzu-shima, and Nii-jima in the Izu Islands after 26 June 2000. The largest earthquake was M w 6.5, and six earthquakes with a maximum JMA seismic intensity of Shindo 6-and Modified Mercalli intensity of VI–VII, resulting in a large-scale earthquake swarm.
The Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) officially named this earthquake the 2024 Noto Peninsula Earthquake (Japanese: 令和6年能登半島地震, Hepburn: Reiwa 6-nen Noto-hantō Jishin). [7] It led to Japan's first major tsunami warning since the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake , [ 8 ] and a tsunami of 6.58 m (22 ft) was measured along the Sea of ...
Module:Shindo/doc. Module. : Shindo/doc. This is the Shindo module. Named after the Japanese term used for classifying earthquakes 震度 しんど, this template provides utility for seismic intensity scales.
v. t. e. The Modified Mercalli intensity scale (MM, MMI, or MCS) measures the effects of an earthquake at a given location. This is in contrast with the seismic magnitude usually reported for an earthquake. Magnitude scales measure the inherent force or strength of an earthquake – an event occurring at greater or lesser depth. (The " Mw ...
