The USGS ANSS (Advanced National Seismic System) Comprehensive Catalog (ComCat) is the authoritative and preferred source for near-realtime information about earthquakes and other seismic events (such as nuclear weapons tests) of magnitude 5.0 or greater anywhere in the world. ANSS is focused on providing accurate and timely information about ...
Logo of the ANSS. The Advanced National Seismic System (ANSS) is a collaboration of the United States Geological Survey (USGS) and regional, state, and academic partners that collects and analyzes data on significant earthquakes to provide near real-time (generally within 10 to 30 minutes [1]) information to emergency responders and officials, the news media, and the public.

This is a list of earthquakes in 2025.Only earthquakes of magnitude 6 or above are included, unless they result in significant damage and/or casualties. All dates are listed according to UTC time.
The main scientific goal of the centre is the definitive compilation of earthquake information and the readings on which they are based. Collection of reports of earthquake effects is also an important part of its operation and the Centre recomputes the location and occurrence time of earthquakes worldwide, making use of all available information.
The United States Geological Survey Library (USGS Library) is a program within the United States Geological Survey (USGS), a scientific bureau within the Department of Interior of the United States government. The USGS operates as a fact-finding research organization with limited regulatory responsibility.
Tectonic setting of Java. Java lies near an active convergent boundary that separates the Sunda Plate to the north and the Australian Plate to the south. At the boundary, marked by the Sunda Trench, the northward-moving Australian Plate subducts beneath the Sunda Plate.
The United States Geological Survey (USGS) placed the earthquake at M w 7.3 with a depth of 54.4 kilometres (33.8 mi). The focal mechanism indicated oblique-normal faulting. Together with the hypocentral depth, this implied faulting within the subducting Australian plate. The USGS proposed two finite fault models: one depicting rupture on a ...
