18 April 1990 13:39 UT Mw7.8 #earthquake off Minahasa peninsula, hit the area of Gorontalo, North Sulawesi, Indonesia, damaging hundreds of houses and killing three people. earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/ev… trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/ Not far from a Mw7.4 EQ in 2008 👇 x.com/JoseRodRibeiro…

18 April 1896 4:40 UT M7.5 #earthquake hit island of Alor (Indonesia), killing 250-300 people. It was also felt in Atapupu and Kupang in the island of Timor. In 1991 and 2004, other deadly EQs happened here. doi.org/10.3389/feart.… doi.org/10.1785/012022… delpher.nl

28 March 1875 8:30 UT M7.8 #earthquake affected Java (Indonesia), killing 7 people in Tegal and more in other places. [Intensity map: Stacey Martin et al SSA 2015 Abstract #15-450] doi.org/10.1785/012022… doi.org/10.1029/JB092i… eresources.nlb.gov.sg delpher.nl

28 March 2005 16:10 UT Mw8.6 #earthquake, between Nias and Simelue (Indonesia), triggered by the massive 26.12.2004 EQ, ruptured another segment of Sunda Trench. Death toll at least 1200. The #tsunami reached Sri Lanka and Maldives. earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/ev… pandora.girona.cat

28 March 2025 6:21 UT Mw7.7 #earthquake along Sagaing Fault, severely hit Mandalay, Myanmar, killing at least 3791 people in Myanmar and 63 in Thailand. Damage as far as Yunnan (China) and southern Vietnam. earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/ev… emsc.eu/Earthquake_inf… manilastandard.net/dailypdf

#OpenAccessArticle | #AnnalsOfGeophysics High-precision #MultiScale #earthquake relocations reveal new insights into the #seismicity beneath #Mt.Etna between 2014 and 2023.   Watch the seminar by Anthony #Lomax presenting the study (Oct 2024)   Details: bit.ly/WatchTheSemina…

The #CTBTO’s International Monitoring System (IMS) recorded a seismic event south of Bid Shahr, Fars province, #Iran 🇮🇷, on 3 March 2026 at 06:55 UTC (IDC mb 3.9). The waveforms of this event are consistent with a natural earthquake in a seismically active region. This analysis is based on data from 17 primary seismic and 10 auxiliary seismic stations across the IMS network.

These figures show just one year of seismicity data (early 2025 to early 2026). Imagine how complex the active tectonics are. #earthquake #seismicity #Indonesia #Java #Sulawesi #Bali #Lombok #Sumbawa
