A magnitude 4.7 earthquake struck the Big Island of Hawaii on Thursday as officials tracked two rapidly developing storms in the Pacific. The temblor was reported nine miles south of Fern Forest ...
The US Geological Survey reported a preliminary magnitude 5.4 earthquake struck Hawaii's Big Island near where a volcanic eruption has forced at least 1,500 residents to evacuate from their homes.
In the summer of 1996, a swarm of 4,070 earthquakes was recorded at Kamaʻehuakanaloa. At the time this was the most energetic earthquake swarm in Hawaii recorded history. The swarm altered 4 to 5 sq mi (10 to 13 km 2) of the seamount's summit; one section, Pele's Vents, collapsed entirely upon itself and formed the renamed Pele's Pit.
A magnitude 5.7 earthquake shook a remote part of Hawaii's Big Island on Friday. It was felt as far as Honolulu, more than 200 miles away, reports said — likely because of the depth of the ...
Modelling of an earthquake along a fault with a dimension of 73 km (45 mi) by 41 km (25 mi) and an average slip of 1.7 m (5 ft 7 in) corresponds to a moment magnitude (M w ) of 7.5. The estimated M w 7.5 earthquake is the third-largest to occur in the Kingdom of Hawaii, behind the 1868 and 1975 events.
A magnitude 5.0 earthquake was the strongest of a series of temblors that struck Friday on Hawaii's Mauna Loa, the largest active volcano on the planet that scientists say is in a “state of ...
