The 2002 event (7.5 M w) occurred near the two largest 20th century Philippine earthquakes: the 1918 Celebes Sea earthquake (8.3 M w) and the 1976 Moro Gulf earthquake (8.0 M w). The epicenter of the earthquake was located near the Cotobato Trench; the magnitude of this megathrust earthquake was 7.5, the sixth strongest of the year. [ 2 ]
A magnitude 6.0 earthquake struck Santa Flavia, Italy on September 6 at a depth of 5.0 km (3.1 mi), 2 People Died From Heart Attacks. A magnitude 7.6 earthquake struck East Sepik, Papua New Guinea on September 8 at a depth of 13.0 km (8.1 mi), 6 people were killed and 70 More were injured.
The tsunami generated by the 1976 earthquake caused about 4,000 deaths on Mindanao. Modelling of likely further tsunamis along the Cotabato Trench suggests that run-ups of several metres are likely for future earthquakes similar in size to the 1976 event. [6]

The 2019 Cotabato earthquakes were an earthquake swarm which struck the province of Cotabato on the island of Mindanao in the Philippines in October 2019. [6] Three of these earthquakes were above 6.0 on the moment magnitude scale with a Mercalli intensity of VIII. More than 40 people have been reported dead or missing and nearly 800 were ...
A pie chart comparing the seismic moment release of the three largest earthquakes for the hundred-year period from 1906 to 2005 with that for all earthquakes of magnitudes <6, 6 to 7, 7 to 8, and >8 for the same period. The 2011 Japan quake would be roughly similar to Sumatra. Earthquakes of magnitude 8.0 and greater from 1900 to 2018.

Near the Cotabato Trench, two of the largest 20th century Philippine earthquakes: the 1918 Celebes Sea earthquake (8.3 M w) and the 1976 Moro Gulf earthquake (8.0 M w). Also included is the recent 2002 Mindanao earthquake (7.5 M w). The Moro Gulf, part of the Celebes Sea, is labeled for context.
