Recent Major Earthquake Activity Table - 90 Days

The table above shows the USGS regions and the associated count of large (> M4.9) earthquakes which have occurred in the past 90 days. ThIs shows which regions are actively producing major earthquakes, but does not take into account neighbouring regions. To save space, regions with fewer than 5 major earthquakes in the past 90 days are not shown. To give a more realistic viewpoint, the summary table has attempted to condense the regions into those that share the same country/area in their descriptions. All earthquake times and dates are in GMT.
