The earthquake
locations listed on this page are preliminary in nature, might be
erroneous and are early estimates obtained from Indian and global
seismological networks for recent/latest earthquakes in south Asia
i.e. Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Myanmar
(Burma), Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka as well 1as selected events
in the Arabian Sea, the Northern Indian Ocean, off the coast of
Sumatra, Indonesia and the provinces of Xizang and Xinjiang in
China (see networks).
These data can be expected to differ with final estimates
available days/weeks later.
On an average, the information on
this page is updated
ONCE every 24-hours and is not
a real-time or near-real time listing.
Please note that this page automatically refreshes itself every
60-seconds.
NOTE: For the island of Sumatra, the above listing displays
reported events occurring north of the Equator and
offshore events of M
≥
6.0 occurring south of the Equator.
Date
& UTC Time: Both the date
and the time are listed in UTC (Coordinated
Universal Time).
UTC+0430 = Afghanistan
UTC+0500 = Maldives, Pakistan.
UTC+0530 = India, Sri Lanka.
UTC+0545 = Nepal.
UTC+0600 = Bangladesh, Bhutan.
UTC+0700 = Indonesia (Sumatra only).
Magnitude: 'Mag'
and 'T'
represent the magnitude and the type of magnitude respectively.
Mw=Moment Magnitude; Ms=Surface wave Magnitude; Mb=Body wave
magnitude; ML=Local or Richter Scale magnitude; Mc=Coda magnitude;
Md=Duration magnitude; M?=Unknown magnitude type.
In addition 'F' indicates a felt event for which a magnitude is
unavailable due to various reasons or a magnitude quoted by local
media. All events of magnitude M
≥
5.5 are highlighted in red.
Lat, Long,
ASC Location: Latitude and Longitude co-ordinates are
for the northern & eastern hemispheres respectively
and are received from networks marked in the last column (#).
A preliminary location is given
by the ASC based on these co-ordinates
with reference to the nearest geographic location to the epicentre.
For selected events, special event pages or ASCN messages are
linked to the above listing. The magnitude, location and depth as
well as reporting agency that appear in preliminary ASC-N messages
might change when more data is available and this page
reflecting the changes.
Depth:
Depth is in kilometres (kms). Events with focal depths between 0 -
70 kms are shallow, those between 71 - 300 are intermediate and
lastly, those occurring greater than 300 kms are deep.
