What do we know about the M8.8 earthquake that struck offshore Russia yesterday? We explore patterns in the foreshocks and aftershocks, compare the USGS seismic catalog with a local seismic database, and compare the event to the great 1952 earthquake.

Watch how seismometers recorded the passing earthquake waves from the magnitude 8.8 earthquake off Russia’s Kamchatka Peninsula.

Each dot in this animation is a seismic station—red 🔴 means the ground moved up, blue 🔵 means it moved down.

This animation from @earthscope.org uses real seismic data to show how the earthquake waves from the magnitude 7.4 earthquake in the Drake passage were detected by seismic stations in North America. 🧪

Watch the waves from the M7.0 earthquake in Northern California roll across seismic stations in North America.

In this video you can watch the waves from the M7.6 earthquake off the coast of Mindanao, Philippines sweep across seismic stations in North America and Europe.
